We investigated the prognostic value of intratumoral [¹⁸F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake heterogeneity (IFH) derived from positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in patients with cervical cancer. ⋯ Preoperative IFH was significantly associated with cervical cancer recurrence. [¹⁸F]FDG based heterogeneity may be a useful and potential predicator of patient recurrence before treatment.
