Abstract
Lymphoma is a potentially curable disease; however, the clinical challenge lies in further improvement of outcomes. PET with fludeoxyglucose is an effective imaging tool. PET-derived quantitative metrics have raised significant interest to be used as a prognostic factor to complement clinical parameters for treatment decisions. The most optimized use of these quantitative PET metrics, however, will be possible with the standardization of imaging procedures. In this article, we review the technical and methodological considerations related to PET-derived quantitative metrics, and the relevant published data to emphasize the potential value of these metrics in patient prognosis and treatment response in lymphoma.
