Description:
Keywords: 18F-FDG PET/CT; Computer-assisted image analysis; Image reconstruction; Diagnostic imaging; Reproducibility of results Objectives To compare lesion features extracted from 18.sup.F-FDG PET/CT images acquired on analog and digital scanners, on consecutive imaging data from the same subjects. Methods Whole-body 18.sup.F-FDG PET/CT images from 55 oncological patients were acquired twice after a single 18.sup.F-FDG injection, with a digital and an analog PET/CT scanner, alternately. Twenty-nine subjects were examined first on the digital, and 26 first on the analog equipment. Image reconstruction was performed using manufacturer standard clinical protocols and protocols that fulfilled EARL1 specifications. Twenty-five features based on lesion standardized uptake value (SUV) and geometry were assessed. To compare these features, intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), relative difference (RD), absolute value of RD (|RD|), and repeatability coefficient (RC) were used. Results In total, 323 18.sup.F-FDG avid lesions were identified. High agreement (ICC > 0.75) was obtained for most of the lesion features pulled out from both scanners' imaging data, especially when reconstruction protocols fulfilled EARL1 specifications. For EARL1 reconstruction images, the features frequently used in clinics, SUV.sub.max, SUV.sub.peak, SUV.sub.mean, metabolic tumor volume, and total lesion glycolysis, reached an ICC of 0.92, 0.95, 0.87, 0.98, and 0.98, and a median RD (digital-analog) of 3%, 5%, 4%, - 3% and 1%, respectively. Using standard reconstruction protocols, the ICC were 0.84, 0.93, 0.80, 0.98, and 0.98, and the RD were 20%, 11%, 13%, - 7%, and 7%, respectively. Conclusion Under controlled acquisition and reconstruction parameters, most of the features studied can be used for research and clinical work. This is especially important for multicenter studies and patient follow-ups. Key Points * Using manufacturer standard clinical reconstruction protocols, lesions SUV was significantly higher when using the digital scanner, especially the SU[V.sub.max]that was approximately 20% higher. * High agreement was obtained for the majority of the lesion features when using reconstruction protocols that fulfilled EARL1 specifications. * Longitudinal patient studies can be performed interchangeably between digital and analog scanners when both fulfill EARL1 specifications.
