Summary statistics mean (SD) and 95% confidence interval of the SUV values (SUVmax and SUVmean) and mean tissue perfusion parameters in healthy-appearing muscle tissue and neoplastic lesions
| Tissue | SUVmax | SUVmean | BF | BV | MTT | PS |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Muscle | 1.1 (± 0.43) | 0.93 (± 0.47) | 6.45 (± 2.09) | 1.24 (± 0.77) | 22.75 (± 3.31) | 1.68 (± 1.03) |
| (0.82, 1.37) | (0.63, 1.23) | (5.12, 7.78) | (0.75, 1.73) | (20.39, 25.11) | (1.02, 2.34) | |
| Tumor | 15.39 (± 2.54) | 6.56 (± 1.2) | 94.52 (± 16.7) | 5.46 (± 1.24) | 6.05 (± 1.38) | 24.11 (± 8.39) |
| (13.98, 16.8) | (5.89, 7.22) | (85.27, 103.77) | (4.77, 6.14) | (5.28, 6.81) | (19.46, 28.76) |
Note:—SUVmax and SUVmean indicate maximal and mean standardized uptake values of glucose (g/mL); BF, blood flow (mL/min/100 g); BV, blood volume (mL/100 g); MTT, mean transit time (s); PS, permeability (mL/min/100 g).
