Abstract:: |
Objective To investigate the effect of using two different input functions to reconstruct 18F-FDG PET/CT Patlak multi-parameter images on the quantitative parameters of lung cancer lesions.Methods The original whole-body dynamic 18F-FDG PET/CT scan data of lung cancer patients in the Department of Nuclear Medicine, First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. The total scan time was 75 min. Two input functions were used for Patlak multi-parameter reconstruction:① Image-derived input function(IDIF) using the Time-activity curve(TAC) of descending aorta from 0 min to 75 min. ② Population-based input function (PBIF) developed by Yale University. Metabolic rate of FDG (MRFDG) and Distribution volume (DV) images were obtained by Patlak multi-parameter analysis software using the above input functions. The region of interest (ROI) method was used to delineate the lesions to obtain multi-parameter quantitative information, including the max, peak and mean value of MRFDG and DV. Paired t-test was used for statistical analysis.Results The original data of 27 lung cancer patients who received whole-body dynamic 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging were reconstructed by Patlak with two different input functions. The max, peak and mean values of MRFDG-IDIF and MRFDG-PBIF in lung cancer lesions were as follows:(0.26 ±0.15), (0.19 ±0.12), (0.14 ±0.08)μmol·min-1·ml-1 and (0.26 ±0.15),(0.20 ±0.13), (0.15 ±0.09)μmol·min-1·ml-1, with no statistically significant difference between two functions(P > 0.05). The max, peak and mean values of DVIDIF and DVPBIF were (165.56 ±99.89)%,(117.66 ±72.24)%,(62.16 ±33.65)% and(170.04 ±103.93)%,(121.91 ±73.71)%,(65.05 ±37.17)%, with no statistically significant difference between two functions (P > 0.05).Conclusions The population-based input function may be an alternative for patients who could not lie supine for long time during whole-body dynamic 18F-FDG PET/CT Patlak multi-parameter imaging. |
