This study aimed to evaluate the role of 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose ( 18 F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in expression of tumor programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression and prognostic significance of 18 F-FDG PET/CT at different PD-L1 status in patients with lung adenocarcinoma.
