[11C]-acetate uptake is prognostic in late-stage HCC patients. A Kaplan–Meier estimate of all HCC patients undergoing staging with dual-tracer PET-CT (n = 197). Overall survival (OS) is similar between HCC with and without [11C]-acetate uptake. (B) Kaplan–Meier estimate of stage III & IV HCC tumors (n = 51) with and without [11C]-acetate uptake showing poorer OS in tumors without [11C]-acetate uptake
