Abstract

Although visual and quantitative assessments of [18F]FDG PET/CT studies typically rely on liver uptake value as a reference or normalisation factor, consensus or consistency in measuring [18F]FDG uptake is lacking. Therefore, we evaluate the variation of several liver standardised uptake value (SUV) measurements in lymphoma [18F]FDG PET/CT studies using different uptake metrics.PET/CT scans from 34 lymphoma patients were used to calculate SUVmaxGenerally, SUVmaxSUVmeanEudraCT: 2006-005,174-42, 01-08-2008.
