Abstract
[(18)F]-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) images are usually quantitatively analyzed in "whole-tumor" volumes of interest. Also parameters determined with dynamic PET acquisitions, such as the Patlak glucose metabolic rate (MR(glc)) and pharmacokinetic rate constants of two-tissue compartment modeling, are most often derived per lesion. We propose segmentation of tumors to determine tumor heterogeneity, potentially useful for dose-painting in radiotherapy and elucidating mechanisms of FDG uptake. In 41 patients with 104 lesions, dynamic FDG-PET was performed. On MR(glc) images, tumors were segmented in quartiles of background subtracted maximum MR(glc) (0%-25%, 25%-50%, 50%-75%, and 75%-100%). Pharmacokinetic analysis was performed using an irreversible two-tissue compartment model in the three segments with highest MR(glc) to determine the rate constants of FDG metabolism. From the highest to the lowest quartile, significant decreases of uptake (K(1)), washout (k(2)), and phosphorylation (k(3)) rate constants were seen with significant increases in tissue blood volume fraction (V(b)). Tumor regions with highest MR(glc) are characterized by high cellular uptake and phosphorylation rate constants with rel...Continue Reading
