Prognostic Value of Radiomic Analysis Using Pre- and Post-Treatment ¹⁸F-FDG-PET/CT in Patients with Laryngeal Cancer and Hypopharyngeal Cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The prognostic value of conducting ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT imaging has yielded different results in patients with laryngeal cancer and hypopharyngeal cancer, but these results are controversial, and there is a lack of dedicated studies on each type of cancer. This study aimed to evaluate whether combining radiomic analysis of pre- and post-treatment ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT imaging features and clinical parameters has additional prognostic value in patients with laryngeal cancer and hypopharyngeal cancer.

Methods

From 2008 to 2016, data on patients diagnosed with cancer of the larynx and hypopharynx were retrospectively collected. The patients underwent pre- and post-treatment ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT imaging. The values of ΔPre-Post PET were measured from the
