Rapid Standardized CT-Based Method to Determine Lean Body Mass SUV for PET—A Significant Improvement Over Prediction Equations

In (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) studies, maximum standardized uptake value (SUV(max)) is the parameter commonly used to provide a measurement of the metabolic activity of a tumor. SUV normalized by body mass is affected by the proportions of body fat and le...
