Maximum standardized value (SUVmax) of the different histological subtypes of lung adenocarcinoma. Solid predominant (SPA) subtype showed the highest SUVmax (10.4±5.4), with lower SUVmax values for “in situ” subtype (AIS) (0.5±0.1) and minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) (1.1±0.9). Mucinous subtype (IMA) had a low SUVmax 2.7±1.2) despite the fact of being included in the high histologic grade (A). Association between (SUVmax) of the different histologic lung adenocarcinoma grades (low, intermediate and high grade). Tumors with low-grade had the lowest SUVmax (2.4±2.7). The inclusion of IMA in the high-grade group was the reason for the lack of significant difference between intermediate (7.6±6.6) and high grade (7.4±5.5) (B).
