abstract = {BackgroundA complete glioma resection is known to prolong
survival. Contrast enhancement (CE) in MRI is usually the
target for resection but the solid tumor mass may extend
beyond the area of CE. It has been demonstrated that amino
acid PET can detect tumor parts showing no CE in MRI. We
systematically investigated the volumetric correlation of
amino acid uptake with PET and CE in MRI in newly diagnosed
and untreated glioblastoma patients.Material and
MethodsPreoperatively, 26 patients were examined by
O-(2-[18F]-fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine (FET) PET and
contrast-enhanced MRI. Enhancing tumor areas on MRI were
manually segmented on each transverse section and the sum of
the areas was multiplied by the slice thickness to obtain
contrast-enhancing volumes. The calculation of FET PET tumor
volumes was based on an auto-contouring process using a
tumor-to-brain ratio of 1.6 or more. For volumetric
comparison, the Dice and Jaccard spatial similarity
coefficients (DSC; JSC) and the percentage of overlapping
volumes (OV) were calculated. Postoperatively, a
glioblastoma was confirmed neuropathologically in all
patients.ResultsFET PET tumor volumes were significantly
larger than contrast-enhancing volumes (26.7 ± 13.4 mL vs.
15.1 ± 11.5 mL; P=0.002). The spatial similarity between
FET PET and CE was poor (mean DSC, 0.44 ± 0.18; mean JSC,
0.30 ± 0.14). Additionally, approximately one quarter of
patients (n=7) showed a low spatial overlap (mean OV, 36 ±
$18\%).ConclusionThe$ present data suggest that the
metabolic tumor volume as detected by FET PET is
substantially underestimated by CE. Information derived from
both imaging modalities should be integrated for the routine
management of patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma.},
