The maximum standardized FDG uptake on PET-CT in patients with non-small cell lung cancer
BACKGROUND Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for approximately 80% of new diagnoses of pulmonary carcinoma. This study investigated the correlation between 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake in computerized tomography integrated positron emission tomography and tumor size, lymph node metastasis, and distant metastasis in patients with NSCLC. METHODS The records of 151 NSCLC patients (13...
متن کاملFDG standardized uptake value as prognostic factor for inoperable non-small cell lung cancer
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between standardized uptake value (SUV), obtained from [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET), and treatment response and survival of inoperable NSCLC patients treated with high dose radiotherapy. Fifty-one patients were included, recording stage, performance, weight loss, tumour volume, histology, lymph node invo...
متن کاملTIGAR Is Correlated with Maximal Standardized Uptake Value on FDG-PET and Survival in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
OBJECTIVE Evaluation of (18)F-FDG uptake value via PET is central to current methods of diagnosis and staging of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) due to its ability to evaluate expression levels of key regulators associated with glucose metabolism in tumor cells. Tp53-induced glycolysis and apoptosis regulator (TIGAR) is an important P53-induced protein that can inhibit glycolysis; however, t...
متن کاملMaximum Standardized Uptake Value of F-18 FDG-PET Inversely Correlated with Immunoexpression of p16 INK4a in Patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
We have studied the possible relationship between the immunohistochemical expression of p16 and the maximum standardized uptake value (SUV max) of F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (F-18 FDGPET) in 49 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Immunohistochemical negativity of p16 was verified in 71.4 % of the patients, higher in squamous cell carcinomas than in adenoc...
متن کاملClinicopathological Features of Patients with Non-small-cell Lung Cancer in West of Iran
Background: Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer death worldwide with an annual mortality rate of more than 1.3 million worldwide. We aimed to analyze the clinicopathological features of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in west of Iran. Methods: 64 patients with NSCLC who referred to our clinic were analyzed. Sex, age, histopathology, location of the tumor, treatment,...
