What and how should we measure in paediatric oncology FDG-PET/CT? Comparison of commonly used SUV metrics for differentiation between paediatric tumours

BACKGROUND: In clinical routine, SUV(max) and SUV(peak) are most often used to determine the glucose metabolism in tumours by (18)F-FDG PET/CT. Both metrics can be further normalised to SUVs in reference regions resulting in a SUV ratio (SUV(ratio)). The aim of the study was to directly compare seve...
