VARGAS-PARTIDA, Tonatiuh et al. TAC y PET/TC con 18-FDG para evaluar la respuesta al tratamiento en linfoma de Hodgkin y no Hodgkin. Gac. Méd. Méx [online]. 2019, vol.155, n.4, pp.386-390. Epub 01-Jul-2021. ISSN 2696-1288. https://doi.org/10.24875/gmm.19005227.
Introduction:
The assessment of lymphoma response to treatment is based on imaging studies.
Objective:
To correlate the assessment of lymphoma treatment response by computed tomography (CT) and by positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT).
Method:
Cross-sectional, observational study, where records of patients with lymphoma under surveillance by CT and PET/CT were reviewed.
Results:
The study population consisted of 43 patients with a mean age of 32.7 ± 22.4 years; 26 (60.5 %) had a diagnosis of Hodgkins lymphoma and 17 (9.5 %) had non-Hodgkin lymphoma. By CT, 34 (79.1 %) were diagnosed with disease and nine (20.9 %) without disease. The criteria used to assess the response was radiologist experience in 39 (90.7 %) and RECIST 1.1 criteria in four (9.3 %). The diagnosis by 18-FDG PET/CT was no response to treatment or partial response-recurrence in 32 (74.4 %) and response to treatment in 11 (25.6 %); with PERCIST criteria in 13 (30.2 %) and Deuaville criteria in 30 (69.8 %). When the diagnosis by CT versus 18-FDG PET/CT was compared, out of 11 patients with complete response on PET/CT, three had a similar CT diagnosis. Of the 34 patients with data consistent disease diagnosed by CT, 26 had similar results by 18-FDG PET/CT (p = 0.54).
Conclusion:
The value of lymphoma treatment response on CT does not agree with that obtained by 18-FDG PET/CT.
