Correlation of segmented metabolic tumor volume with outcome--letter.
Comment on Chung et al. “Metabolic tumor volume of [F]-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/ computed tomography predicts short-term outcome to radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy in pharyngeal cancer” published in Clinical Cancer Research 2009;15 (18):5861-5866. With great interest, we read the publication by Chung et al. (1). In 82 pharyngeal cancer patients undergoing (chemo...
متن کاملCorrelation of Leukocyte Count and Percentage of Segmented Neutrophils with Pathohistological Findings of Appendix in Children
BackgroundAppendicitis is the most common indication for an emergency operation in children's age. Although none of the laboratory values has not high sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of appendicitis, leukocyte count and the percentage of segmented neutrophils are most commonly used. The aim of this study was to determine whether there is a statistically significant correlation bet...
متن کاملThe effect of tumor volume on radiotherapy outcome and correlation with other prognostic factors in patients with T2 supraglottic cancer
The retrospective chart review of 110 patients with T2 supraglottic cancer who underwent radiotherapy was performed to correlate tumor volume with other prognostic factors and to analyze its impact on treatment results. Patients with involved nodes, poor histopathological tumor differentiation, or hemoglobin concentration ≤ 14.3 g/dl had significantly larger tumors. Patients with large tumors h...
متن کاملProstate tumor volume measurement with combined T2-weighted imaging and diffusion-weighted MR: correlation with pathologic tumor volume.
PURPOSE To retrospectively determine the accuracy of diffusion-weighted (DW) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for identifying cancer in the prostate peripheral zone (PZ) and to assess the accuracy of tumor volume measurements made with T2-weighted imaging and combined T2-weighted and DW MR imaging by using surgical pathologic examination as the reference standard. MATERIALS AND METHODS The ins...
متن کاملMetabolic tumor volume assessed by 18F-FDG PET/CT for the prediction of outcome in patients with multiple myeloma.
UNLABELLED (18)F-FDG PET/CT allows the direct measurement of metabolic tumor burden in a variety of different malignancies. The aim of this study was to assess whether metabolic tumor volume (MTV) determined by (18)F-FDG PET/CT could be used in the prediction of progression-free and overall survival in multiple myeloma patients. METHODS Forty-seven patients (18 women, 29 men; mean age ± SD, 6...
