abstract = {We read with great interest the paper by Hatzoglou et al,
recently published in Neuro-Oncology,1 concerning the
discrimination between progressive disease and
radiotherapy-induced changes in brain tumors, which is a
clinical challenge of paramount importance. To address this
diagnostic problem, the authors compared dynamic contrast
enhanced (DCE) MRI and fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)
PET/CT in a total of 53 patients with primary brain tumors
(n = 29) or brain metastases (n = 26). They found that the
DCE MRI–derived plasma volume ratio (Vpratio) and transfer
coefficient ratio (Ktransratio), as well as the FDG
PET–derived standardized uptake value ratio (SUVratio)
were useful in distinguishing between progression and
radiation injury, both in the overall cohort and in the 2
main subgroups (primary and secondary brain tumors). They
concluded, however, that DCE MRI–derived Vpratio was the
“most robust” predictor of progression after showing a
trend toward higher performances for Vpratio with respect to
SUVratio (sensitivity and specificity = $92\%$ and $77\%$ vs
$68\%$ and $82\%;$ AUC = 0.87 vs 0.75, P = .061, for Vpratio
and SUVratio, respectively).},
