Background: The utility of the [18]F fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography–computed tomography ([18]F FDG PET-CT) marker for breast cancer is well established. Given its limitations in localizing FDG-negative malignant tumors, the expression of [18]F-fluorocholine ([18]-FCH) may potentiall...
