Abstract

In this study, the relationship between the results of positron emission tomography (PET) with fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) in patients with lymphomas and their progression-free survival (PFS) was analyzed. The aim of the study was to determine whether there are differences in the level of FDH absorption and tumor volume in patients with different periods of PFS after treatment and a score of 3 points on the PET scale. The average values of FDG uptake and tumor volume in patients with different periods of AFD were calculated and compared. It was revealed that in patients with a period of PFS of more than 24 months, there are statistically significant differences in both parameters. These results can be used as an additional factor in predicting the disease in patients with lymphomas after treatment and a 3-point PET score.
