abstract = {AbstractIntroduction: The differentiation of
pseudoprogression (PsP) from tumor progression (TP) in
glioblastoma patients is difficult on the basis of standard
MRI alone. Textural feature analysis as part of the concept
of radiomics offers a quantitative method to describe tumor
heterogeneity and gains increasing interest in the field of
neuro-oncology. In our study, we investigated the potential
of textural features of O-(2-[18F]fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine
(FET) PET to discriminate between PsP and TP in glioblastoma
patients. Materials and Methods: Twenty-three newly
diagnosed glioblastoma patients with MRI findings suspicious
for TP within 12 weeks after completion of chemoradiation
with temozolomide underwent an additional dynamic FET PET
scan. Volumes-of-interest were defined on summed images from
20-40 min post-injection (p.i.) by a 3-dimensional
auto-contouring process using a tumor-to-brain ratio (TBR)
of 1.6 or more. For each lesion, TBRs and the time-activity
curves (TACs) of the FET uptake were determined. The TACs
were used to evaluate the dynamic FET PET parameters
time-to-peak (TTP), slope (slope of linear regression line
20-50 min p.i.) and intercept (intercept of linear
regression line with y-axis). Additionally, 39 textural
parameters were calculated using the software LifeX
(lifexsoft.org). The diagnostic accuracy of TBRs, TTP,
slope, intercept, and textural parameters to discriminate
between PsP and TP was evaluated using ROC analyses. In
order to further increase the diagnostic accuracy,
parameters were combined using linear logistic regression
for classification of PsP and TP. Results: Fourteen patients
had a clinico-radiological diagnosis of TP and nine patients
had PsP. The FET PET parameters TBRmean, TBRmax, TTP and
intercept yielded a diagnostic accuracy to discriminate
between PsP and TP of $79\%,$ $79\%,$ $58\%,$ $63\%,$
respectively. The dynamic FET PET parameter slope yielded
the highest diagnostic accuracy of $83\%$ to discriminate
between PsP and TP. Two textural features showed a
comparable accuracy of $79\%.$ The diagnostic accuracy could
not be increased by combination of parameters. Conclusions:
Textural features yielded a comparable diagnostic accuracy
for diagnosis of pseudoprogression in glioblastoma patients
in comparison with static and dynamic FET PET parameters.
Textural features might yield additional valuable
information for this highly relevant clinical problem and
should be further evaluated in larger cohort prospective
studies.},
