18F-fluorocholine PET/CT compared with extended pelvic lymph node dissection in high-risk prostate cancer

Purpose

To compare ¹⁸F-fluorocholine positron-emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) with extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) for the detection of lymph node metastases in a large cohort of patients with high-risk prostate cancer.

Materials and methods

Patients with prostate-specific antigen levels between 20 and 99 ng/mL and/or Gleason score 8–10 cancers, planned for treatment with curative intent following a negative or inconclusive standard bone scan, were investigated with ¹⁸F-fluorocholine PET/CT followed by an ePLND. None of the patients received hormonal therapy prior to these staging procedures. Results for PET/CT were compared on a per-patient basis with histopathology from ePLND. Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values were calculated.

Results

PET/CT detected a total of 76 suspected lymph node metastases and four suspected bone metastases in 33 (29 %) of the 112 included patients. Of these, 35 suspected lymph node metastases, only within the anatomical template area of an ePLND, were found in 21 of the patients. Histopathology of the ePLND specimens detected 117 lymph node metastases in 48 (43 %) of the 112 patients. Per-patient sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values for ¹⁸F-fluorocholine PET/CT for lymph node metastases within the ePLND template were 0.33, 0.92, 0.76 and 0.65, respectively. Only 11 patients had lymph nodes larger than 10 mm that would have been reported by CT alone.

Conclusions

¹⁸F-fluorocholine PET/CT detects lymph node metastases in a significant proportion of patients with high-risk prostate cancer with a high specificity, but low sensitivity.     

11C-胆碱PET/CT显像在前列腺癌诊断中的应用价值

目的探讨11C-胆碱PET/CT显像在前列腺癌诊断中的临床价值。方法42例PSA升高的可疑前列腺癌患者为研究组,5例浸润性膀胱癌患者为阴性对照组,静脉注射7.4 MBq/kg 11C-胆碱5 min后行仰卧位盆腔PET/CT显像,可疑转移者行全身显像。测量最高标准化摄取值(SUVmax)并计算前列腺病灶与肌肉组织SUVmax的比值T/B。结果经病理证实为前列腺癌者22例,良性前列腺增生(BPH)者25例(含对照组),两者的T/B值分别为4.32±1.35和1.68±1.23.差异有统计学意义(P<0.01)。11C-胆碱PET/CT显像诊断前列腺癌的敏感性为81.8%(18/22),特异性为84.0%(21/25)。PET/CT显示9例前列腺癌患者伴骨和(或)淋巴结及肺转移。22例前列腺癌者SUVmax与PSA值、Gleason评分值无相关性(P>0.05)。结论11C-胆碱PET/CT显像对前列腺癌的诊断有重要价值。

Dual-phase FDG PET/CT for predicting prognosis in operable breast cancer

PurposeWe aimed to investigate the role of dual-phase FDG PET/CT in predicting the prognosis of patients with operable breast cancer.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed the data of 998 patients who underwent radical treatment for breast cancer. Before treatment, PET/CT scans were performed 1 and 2 h after FDG administration. The maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) at both time points (SUVmax1 and SUVmax2) in the primary tumor and the retention index (RI) were calculated. PET recurrence risk (PET-RR) was determined based on the SUVmax1 and RI, and disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were evaluated according to the metabolic parameters. Propensity score matching was performed to adjust for biological characteristics.ResultsThe cut-off values for SUVmax1 and RI were 3 and 5%, respectively. The 5-year DFS was 94.9% and 86.1% (P < 0.001), and the 5-year OS was 97.6% and 92.7% (P < 0.001) in the low and high PET-RR groups, respectively. In multivariate analysis, high T status, nodal metastasis, the triple-negative subtype, and high PET-RR were independent factors of poor DFS. Propensity score matching revealed similar findings (5-year DFS 91.8% vs. 88.6%, P = 0.041 and 5-year OS 97.1% vs. 94.2%, P = 0.240, respectively).ConclusionThe combined parameters of SUVmax1 and RI on dual-phase FDG PET/CT were useful for predicting prognosis of patients with breast cancer. Patients with a high SUVmax1 and a negative time course of FDG uptake had a favorable prognosis.     

FDG PET/CT and MRI findings in a patient with focal xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis mimicking cystic renal malignancy

Focal xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis (XGP) is a chronic inflammatory condition that can mimic other disease conditions such as pyelonephritis, tuberculosis, renal abscess, renal cell carcinoma, and renal metastasis. Urinary tract infection and obstruction are considered to be predisposing factors. The clinical symptoms and imaging findings are often nonspecific so that an incorrect initial diagnosis is common. Here, we report a case of a patient with focal XGP with FDG PET/CT findings that mimic renal malignancy.     

Clinical Significance of Incidental Colonic 18F-FDG Uptake on PET/CT Images in Patients with Gastric Adenocarcinoma

Background and Objectives

We assessed the ability of positron emission tomography?Ccomputed tomography (PET/CT) to detect synchronous colonic pathology and determined the significance of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (¹⁸F-FDG) activity in the colon of gastric cancer patients.

Methods

A total of 239 gastric cancer patients who underwent PET/CT and colonoscopy preoperatively were included. FDG uptake patterns on PET/CT were classified as (1) group A, focal; (2) group B, diffuse; and (3) group C, no uptake. The PET/CT findings were compared with the results of concurrent colonoscopy.

Results

In group A, a total of 123 polyps of >0?mm were observed. Of these, nine polyps were colonic adenocarcinomas and six were high-grade dysplasia. The incidence of colonic adenocarcinomas was significantly higher in group A than in the other two groups (p?=?0.037). There was a significant correlation between SUVmax values and incidence of colonic polyps of >10?mm (r?=?0.471, p?=?0.04). The distribution pattern of SUVmax in polyps with adenoma (>10?mm) was less homogenous than in polyps (>10?mm) with adenocarcinoma.

Conclusions

The focal colonic FDG uptake in PET/CT requires colonoscopic confirmation. The suspicion of colonic malignancy increased in the presence of polyps >10?mm that showed a positive correlation with the SUVmax.     

增强CT和PET/CT对胰腺癌诊断及分期中的价值

目的 探讨增强CT和PET/CT对胰腺癌诊断及分期中的价值.方法 回顾性分析安徽医科大学第一附属医院普外科2009年10月至2013年10月间收治47例手术治疗的胰腺占位患者资料.术前均行CA19-9检查、腹部增强CT扫描及全身PET/CT扫描,比较增强CT与PET/CT在胰腺癌诊断及分期中价值.结果 47例患者中,确诊胰腺癌41例,非胰腺癌6例.CA19-9、增强CT和PET/CT对胰腺癌诊断的灵敏度分别为78.0％、80.4％和95.1％,PET/CT灵敏度优于CA19-9和增强CT,差异有统计学意义（P值分别为0.023和0.043）;在胰周淋巴结转移判断方面,PET/CT和增强CT的灵敏度分别为75.0％和41.6％,二者差异有统计学意义（P=0.019）;在肝转移判断方面,PET/CT和增强CT诊断的灵敏度分别为80.0％和60.0％,二者差异无统计学意义（P=1.0）.结论 PET/CT对胰腺癌诊断有较高灵敏度,显著优于增强CT.当肿瘤SUV值升高,PET/CT诊断仍应注意结合CA19-9、增强CT甚至MRI综合判断;PET/CT有助于发现淋巴结和远处器官转移病灶,获得更加准确的术前分期,从而避免诊断性剖腹探查手术.
