SUV Analysis for Breast Cancer
Goal
Goal is to accommodate basic RECIST assessment for breast cancer (Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors). (RECIST is a set of published rules that define when cancer patients improve ("respond"), stay the same ("stable") or worsen ("progression") during treatments).
- Determine features that currently exist in Slicer
- Develop features that don't
- Provide a framework that knits features together in a comfortable workflow.
PET SUV Analysis Workflow
- Segment the tumor by hand (ROI or VOI, can be simple circle or ellipsoid)
- Compute SUV of baseline
- extract parameters from dicom header including
- concentration
- injected activity
- patient weight
- SUV = ( concentration (microcuries/cc) / injected activity (microcuries) ) - (patient weight (g))
- use maximum value
- extract parameters from dicom header including
- Normalize ROI by SUVmax
- Compute SUV of followup
- extract parameters from dicom header including
- concentration
- injected activity
- patient weight
- SUV = ( concentration (microcuries/cc) / injected activity (microcuries) ) - (patient weight (g))
- use maximum value
- extract parameters from dicom header including
- Normalize ROI by SUVmax
- Resport parameters of interest
- SUVmax_baseline,
- SUVmax_followup,
- % change
- For multiple tumors, report
- sum of SUV_baselines
- sum of SUV_followup
- percent change
