e102 Journal of Thoracic Oncology ® • Volume 10, Number 10, October 2015 importance of the T-stage and have reanalyzed our primary data. By analysis of variance and the Wilcoxon rank sum test, we show that the distribution of maximum standardized uptake value (SUV max ) within the three “T” groups (T1a/T1b/T2a) is significantly different (p < 0.0001). Cox proportional hazards model was then use...
متن کاملPrognostic value of metabolic tumor burden in lung cancer.
Accurate prognosis in patients with lung cancer is important for clinical decision making and treatment selection. The TNM staging system is currently the main method for establishing prognosis. Using this system, patients are grouped into one of four stages based on primary tumor extent, nodal disease, and distant metastases. However, each stage represents a range of disease extent and may not...
متن کاملThe prognostic value of 18-FDG positron emission tomography in T cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma
18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) scans are typically positive in patients with T cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (T-NHL) and can assist in the diagnosis and staging of this uncommon malignancy. Previous studies have suggested that FDG-PET is a useful tool in initial staging of T-NHL; however, there is relatively little evidence for the role of the post-treatment FDGPET in...
متن کاملPrognostic value of midtreatment FDG-PET in oropharyngeal cancer.
BACKGROUND Prognostic metabolic imaging indices are needed for risk stratification for patients with locally advanced oropharyngeal cancer. METHODS We retrospectively examined pretreatment and midtreatment fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) parameters in patients with locally advanced oropharyngeal cancer who were treated with definitive chemoradiation. RESULTS A tota...
متن کاملPrognostic value of various metabolic parameters on pre-treatment 18-F-FDG PET/CT in patients with stage I-III non-small cell lung cancer
Background: the aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of 18Fluorine-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) parameters in both overall survival and progression-free survival in Stage I-III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Materials and Methods: In this retrospective study, 267 patients who were diagnosed as Stage I-III non-smal...
