Presentation Transcript

  1. FDG-PET/CT Technical Committee FDG-PET covariates

  2. Objectives • Define critical covariate measurements that affect FDG-PET SUV quantification • Identify challenges and limitations in these covariates that affect the accuracy and/or precision of SUV measurements • Develop standards for the measurement and recording of covariates • Work with imaging vendors to implement in each PET/CT platform

  3. Current status • List of covariates have been established in the literature and have been summarized for this committee • Preliminary list of challenges and limitations has been identified

  4. Specific Tasks • Complete consensus list of challenges/limitations in covariate measurements • Discuss requested changes with each vendor representative • Interact with DICOM working group to identify current initiatives that may address limitations • Develop resource plan for accomplishing changes

  5. Resources Needed • Interactions with DICOM working group • Engineering efforts at each PET/CT manufacturer to incorporate changes
