Spearman correlation of the HF with SUVmax, MTV, TLG
Variables | HF | |
---|---|---|
Spearman’s coefficient of rank correlation (rho) | p value | |
SUVmax | 0.045 | 0.6228 |
MTV | 0.955 | < 0.0001* |
TLG | 0.354 | 0.0001* |
HF = Heterogeneity factor, SUVmax = Maximum standardized uptake value, MTV = Metabolic tumor volume, TLG = Total lesion glycolysis.
*p < 0.01.
