Tsubakimoto M, et al. - Researchers evaluated the ability of parameters derived from computed tomography (CT) histograms and the maximum standardized uptake value (SUV_max) of ¹⁸F-fludeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/CT (FDG-PET/CT) images to distinguish solid lung adenocarcinomas from squamous cell carcinomas. They also determined whether these parameters were correlated. Solid lung adenocarcinomas could be differentiated from squamous cell carcinomas by using quantitative CT histogram values and SUV assessment. Kurtosis and SUV_max values were strongly associated. Respiratory gating (RG) addition and the further combination of the parameters improved the outcomes.
