Metabolic radiogenomics in lung cancer: associations between FDG PET image features and oncogenic signaling pathway alterations

This study investigated the associations between image features extracted from tumor 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake and genetic alterations in patients with lung cancer. A total of 137 patients (age, 62.7 ± 10.2 years) who underwent FDG positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT)...

Description
Summary:This study investigated the associations between image features extracted from tumor 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake and genetic alterations in patients with lung cancer. A total of 137 patients (age, 62.7 ± 10.2 years) who underwent FDG positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and targeted deep sequencing analysis for a tumor lesion, comprising 61 adenocarcinoma (ADC), 31 squamous cell carcinoma (SQCC), and 45 small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients, were enrolled in this study. From the tumor lesions, 86 image features were extracted, and 381 genes were assessed. PET features were associated with genetic mutations: 41 genes with 24 features in ADC; 35 genes with 22 features in SQCC; and 43 genes with 25 features in SCLC (FDR
