[18F] Fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) PET/CT can improve the staging accuracy and clinical management of patients with hepatobiliary and pancreatic cancers, by detection of unsuspected metastases. 18F-FDG PET/CT metabolic parameters are valuable in predicting treatment response and survival. Metabolic response on 18F-FDG PET/CT can predict preoperative pathologic response to neoadjuvant therapy in patients with pancreatic cancer and determine prognosis. Several novel non-FDG tracers, such as 68Ga prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) and 68Ga-fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) PET/CT, show promise for imaging hepatobiliary and pancreatic cancers with potential for radioligand therapy.
