KL expression is negatively correlated with18F-FDG PET/CT SUVmax value. In order to assess the contribution of KL expression on metabolic burden, we evaluated the correlation between KL expression and SUVmax value obtained from PET/CT scanning by IHC staining. Representative images from PET/CT scanning in patients with low or high KL expression (magnification scale bar, 20 mm) (a). Analysis of the correlation between SUVmax value with KL expression in KL-Low and KL-High groups of patients (n = 71, p < 0.001) (b)
