Resumo

Quantification of metabolic tumor volume (MTV) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) can be time-consuming. We evaluated the performance of an automatic multifocal segmentation (MFS) method of quantification in patients with different stages of Hodgkin lymphoma, using the multiple VOI (MV) method as reference. Methods: This prospective bicentric study included 50 patients with Hodgkin lymphoma who underwent staging F-18-FGD PET/CT. The examinations were centrally reviewed and processed with commercial MFS software to obtain MTV and TLG using 2 fixed relative thresholds (40% and 20% of SUV max ) for each lesion. All PET/CT scans were processed using the MV and MFS methods. Interclass correlation coefficients and Bland-Altman plots were used for statistical analysis. Repeated calculations of MW and TLG values by 2 observers with different degrees of PET/CT imaging experience were used to ascertain interobserver agreement on the MFS method. Results: The means and SDs obtained for the MW with MV and MFS were, respectively, 736 +/- 856 mL and 660 +/- 699 mL for the 20% threshold and 313 +/- 359 mL and 372 +/- 434 mL for the 40% threshold. The time spent calculating the MW was much shorter with the MFS method than with the MV method (median time, 11.6 min {[}range, 1-30 min] and 64.4 min {[}range, 1-240 min], respectively), especially in patients with advanced disease. Time spent was similar in patients with localized disease. There were no statistical differences between the MFS values obtained by the 2 different observers. Conclusion: MTV and TLG calculations using MFS are reproducible, generate similar results to those obtained with MV, and are much less timing-consuming. Main differences between the 2 methods were related to difficulties in avoiding overlay of VOIs in the MV technique. MV and MFS perform equally well in patients with a small number of lesions. (AU)
