To compare the diagnostic and prognostic value of [(18)F] fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) and bone scans (BS) in the assessment of osseous lesions in patients with progressing prostate cancer.
In a prospective imaging trial, 43 patients underwent FDG-PET and BS prior to experimental therapies. Bone scan index (BSI) and standardized uptake value (SUV) on FDG-PET were recorded. Patients were followed until death (n = 36) or at least 5 years (n = 7). Imaging findings were correlated with survival.
Osseous lesions were detected in 39 patients on BS and 32 on FDG-PET (P = 0.01). Follow-up was available for 105 FDG-positive lesions, and 84 (80%) became positive on subsequent BS. Prognosis correlated inversely with SUV (median survival 14.4 versus 32.8 months if SUVmax > 6.10 versus ≤ 6.10; P = 0.002) and BSI (14.7 versus 28.2 months if BSI > 1.27 versus < 1.27; P = 0.004). Only SUV was an independent factor in multivariate analysis.
This study of progressive prostate cancer confirms earlier work that BSI is a strong prognostic factor. Most FDG-only lesions at baseline become detectable on follow-up BS, suggesting their strong clinical relevance. FDG SUV is an independent prognostic factor and provides complementary prognostic information.
比较 [(18)F] 氟脱氧葡萄糖正电子发射断层扫描(FDG-PET)和骨扫描(BS)在评估进展性前列腺癌患者骨病变中的诊断和预后价值。
在一项前瞻性影像学试验中,43 名患者在接受实验性治疗前接受了 FDG-PET 和 BS。记录了骨扫描指数(BSI)和 FDG-PET 的标准化摄取值(SUV)。患者随访至死亡(n=36)或至少 5 年(n=7)。将影像学发现与生存相关联。
BS 检测到 39 例患者有骨病变,FDG-PET 检测到 32 例(P=0.01)。对 105 个 FDG 阳性病变进行了随访,其中 84 个(80%)在随后的 BS 上呈阳性。SUVmax>6.10 与 SUVmax≤6.10 的患者预后呈负相关(中位生存时间分别为 14.4 个月和 32.8 个月;P=0.002)和 BSI(BSI>1.27 与 BSI<1.27 的患者中位生存时间分别为 14.7 个月和 28.2 个月;P=0.004)。仅 SUV 是多变量分析中的独立因素。
本研究证实了早期研究结果,即 BSI 是一个强有力的预后因素。大多数基线时仅 FDG 阳性的病变在随访 BS 上变得可检测,这表明其具有很强的临床相关性。FDG SUV 是一个独立的预后因素,并提供了补充的预后信息。
