The prognosis for hepatobiliary malignancies is dismal. Surgery remains the primary curative option. The positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) provides simultaneous metabolic and anatomic information on tumors in the same imaging session. The role of PET/CT in detecting hepatobiliary malignancies has not yet been established. The purpose of this review was to examine the literature on the use of PET/CT in cholangiocarcinomas, also in order to improve the preoperative staging and the restaging, for a proper oncology management of patients.
肝胆恶性肿瘤的预后很差。手术仍然是主要的治愈选择。正电子发射断层扫描/计算机断层扫描（PET/CT）在同一次成像过程中可同时提供肿瘤的代谢和解剖信息。PET/CT在检测肝胆恶性肿瘤中的作用尚未明确。本综述的目的是研究关于PET/CT在胆管癌中应用的文献，也是为了改善术前分期和再分期，以便对患者进行适当的肿瘤学管理。
