Repeatability of 18F-FDG PET/CT total metabolic active tumor volume and total tumor burden assessment in NSCLC patients: impact of acquisition, image reconstruction and delineation method

Objectives: In this study we investigated the effects of uptake time, acquisition protocol, image reconstruction settings and delineation methods on total metabolic active tumor volume (MATV) and total tumor burden (TTB = MATV × SUVmean summed across all lesions) and their repeatability for 18F-FDG...
