Table 1. Incidence, intensity and thickness of gastric lesions in patients with PGL and AGC.
ANHL(n = 24) | MALT (n = 14) | AGC (n = 69) | |
Presence of CT abnormalities | 92% (22/24) | 86% (12/14) | 97% (67/69) |
Presence of gastric FDGuptake | 100% (24/24) | 86% (12/14) | 100% (69/69) |
SUVmax | 17.10±8.08* | 6.20±3.60 | 9.65±5.24 |
THKmax (cm) | 2.05±1.08 | 1.68±0.81 | 1.93±0.67 |
SUVmax for ANHL vs. AGC and ANHL vs. FDG-avid MALT were significantly different by ANCOVA, P<0.05; SUVmax: maximum standardized uptake value; THKmax: maximal thickness of tumor; FDG: fluorodeoxyglucose; AGC: advanced gastric cancer; MALT: mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue; ANHL: aggressive non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma; Data are mean ± SD or number (%).
