Abstract
BACKGROUND: Maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) is the primary quantitave parameter given in 18F-FDG PET/CT reports. Calculations derived from three dimensional metabolic volumetric images have been proposed to be more successful than SUVmax alone in prognostification with a lower interobserver variability in many cancers. We aimed to determine the prognostic value of metabolic parameters derived from 18F-FDG PET/CT studies in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patient population with a long follow-up time.
