- Clinical and Dosimetric Variables Related to Outcome After Treatment of Graves' Disease With 550 and 1110 MBq of I-131(2015) SAPIENZA, Marcelo Tatit; COURA-FILHO, George Barberio; WILLEGAIGNON, Jose; WATANABE, Tomoco; DUARTE, Paulo Schiavom; BUCHPIGUEL, Carlos AlbertoTherapy of Graves' hyperthyroidism (HTG) with I-131 is still mostly performed on an empirical basis. The present study was carried out to evaluate clinical and dosimetric variables associated with outcome in HTG therapy, which could contribute to planning and defining the most appropriate activity to be administered. Methods Patients with HTG were randomly assigned to therapy with 555 MBq (15mci) or 1110 MBq (30 mCi) of I-131. Estimation of thyroid radiation absorbed dose was made according to MIRD methodology. Success was defined as clinical/laboratory euthyroidism or hypothyroidism one year after therapy. The association between clinical, laboratory, and dosimetric variables with 1-year outcome was measured using bivariate analysis, followed by logistic regression. Results Ninety-one patients included completed the follow-up. Therapeutic success was observed in 77 (84.6%) of them, in a greater proportion when 1110 MBq of I-131 was administered as compared with 550 MBq (94.8% vs 77.4%, P = 0.02). Besides administered activity, multivariate analysis indicated that outcome was related to patient age and gland mass. A higher therapeutic success rate was achieved with doses greater than 300 Gy as compared with doses less than 300 Gy (89% vs 60%, P = 0.01). Conclusion Administered activity, age, and gland mass were related to the outcome. Radiation absorbed dose, although not significant according to multivariate analysis, may be used as a quantitative parameter in therapy planning, with a target dose of 300 Gy. In cases where a rapid and efficient response to radioiodine treatment is required, adoption of a simplified protocol employing high activities is justified.
- Intramastoid Phosphaturic Mesenchymal Tumor Causing Hypophosphatemic Osteomalacia Detected on Ga-68-DOTATATE PET/CT But Not on Tc-99m-Sestamibi and F-18-FDG Scans(2019) ARAUJO, Carlo Scognamiglio Renner; SEGURO, Luciana Parente Costa; DUARTE, Paulo Schiavom; BUCHPIGUEL, Carlos Alberto; PEREIRA, Rosa Maria RodriguesGa-68-DOTATATE uptake in mesenchymal tumors causing hypophosphatemic osteomalacia has been recently described. Herein, we present a case of Ga-68-DOTATATE uptake in an intramastoid phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor that had not been depicted in previous Tc-99m-Sestamibi and F-18-FDG scans. The lesion was surgically removed and the phosphorus level increased to the normal range.
- Prognostic value of F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose PET/computed tomography metabolic parameters measured in the primary tumor and suspicious lymph nodes before neoadjuvant therapy in patients with esophageal carcinoma(2021) TUSTUMI, Francisco; DUARTE, Paulo Schiavom; ALBENDA, David Gutierrez; TAKEDA, Flavio Roberto; SALLUM, Rubens Antonio Aissar; RIBEIRO JUNIOR, Ulysses; BUCHPIGUEL, Carlos Alberto; CECCONELLO, IvanBackground F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose PET/computed tomography (F-18-FDG PET/CT) metabolic parameters are prognostic indicators in several neoplasms. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of the maximum and average standardized uptake value (SUVmax and SUVavg), metabolic tumor value (MTV), and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) measured in the primary tumor and suspicious lymph nodes preneoadjuvant therapy in patients submitted to surgical resection for esophageal cancer. Methods A cohort of 113 patients with esophageal cancer who performed F-18-FDG PET/CT preneoadjuvant therapy was assessed. The association of the SUV, MTV, and TLG measured in the primary tumor and in the suspicious lymph nodes with the overall survival was assessed. It was also analyzed other potentially confounding variables such as age, sex, clinical stage, and histologic subtype. The analyses were performed using Kaplan-Meier curve, log-rank test, and Cox regression. Results The univariate analyses showed that the MTV and TLG in the primary tumor, the SUV in the suspicious lymph nodes, the age, the histologic subtype, and the clinical stage were associated with survival after surgery (P <= 0.05). In the Cox regression multivariate analyses, all variables identified in the univariate analyses but the clinical stage were associated with survival after surgery (P <= 0.05). Conclusion In esophageal cancer patients, some of the F-18-FDG PET/CT metabolic parameters measured in the primary tumor and in the suspicious lymph nodes before the neoadjuvant therapy are independent indicators of overall survival and appear to be more important than the clinical stage in the prognostic definition of this group of patients.
- Comparison of Oral and IV 18F-NaF PET/CT Administration in the Assessment of Bone Metastases in Patients With Breast or Prostate Cancers(2023) ROCHA, Nelisa Helena; ZACCHI, Samara Riguete; SADO, Heitor Naoki; BUCHPIGUEL, Carlos Alberto; DUARTE, Paulo Schiavom; SAPIENZA, Marcelo TatitPurposeThe aim of this study was to compare oral and IV administrations of F-18-NaF PET/CT for detection of suspicious bone metastatic lesions of breast and prostate cancers.Patients and MethodsThirty-six patients with breast (n = 23) or prostate (n = 13) cancers and high risk for bone metastases were prospectively evaluated. All patients underwent 2 PET/CT studies after IV and oral F-18-NaF administration within a 2 to 23 days interval between them. The maximum SUVs from the same suspicious lesions (& LE;5 index lesions per patient) in both studies were measured. The target-to-background ratio (TBR), defined as the relation between the lesion maximum SUV and the whole skeletal mean SUV, was calculated for each lesion. The TBRs in the same lesion calculated using the 2 administration routes were compared. The agreements between 2 physicians in the definition of the number of lesions in both studies were also assessed using weighted & kappa;.ResultsOne hundred thirty-four pairs of lesions were analyzed. There was no significant statistical difference between the median TBRs (P = 0.212) for IV (10.33) and oral (10.85). Excellent intraobserver agreement was observed between IV and oral routes: weighted & kappa; of 1.0 (95% confidence interval, 0.92-1.0) and 0.92 (95% confidence interval, 0.81-0.99) for physicians 1 and 2, respectively. The interobserver coefficients were 0.82 and 0.87 for ""oral versus oral"" and ""IV versus IV,"" respectively.Conclusions(18)F-NaF PET/CT studies using oral and IV routes present comparable performance; thus, it is possible to use oral route in patients with difficult venous access.
- Ga-68-DOTATATE PET: temporal variation of maximum standardized uptake value in normal tissues and neuroendocrine tumours(2019) COURA-FILHO, George Barberio; HOFF, Ana A. F. O.; DUARTE, Paulo S.; BUCHPIGUEL, Carlos A.; JOSEFSSON, Anders; HOBBS, Robert F.; SGOUROS, George; SAPIENZA, Marcelo T.Objectives Higher affinity of Ga-68 compounds to somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) and PET better image resolution increased interest in Ga-68-labelled somatostatin analogs in the management of neuroendocrine tumours (NETs). This study aimed to evaluate the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) variation in sequential somatostatin analogs-PET in NET patients and identify optimal tumour detection and characterization imaging time. Methods Patients with histological or biochemical NET diagnosis performed two to three PET/computed tomography (CT) scans after intravenous injection of Ga-68-DOTATATE: Early PET [EarlyPET: <15 minutes postinjection (p.i.)], diagnostic PET (DiagPET: 45-90 minutes p.i.) and delayed PET (DelayPE: 90-240 minutes p.i.). Up to five tumour sites and normal tissues had SUVmax determined. Time-SUVmax curves were created for the target lesions and normal organs. Ratios between tumour and liver SUVmax (SUVTU/Liver) and tumour/blood pool (SUVTU/BP) were also calculated. Results Twenty-nine patients were included, 16 female, mean age of 46.5 +/- 14.3 years. Average administered activity was 129.5 +/- 29.6 MBq. Kidneys SUVmax was higher in EarlyPET compared with DiagPET (P = 0.04) and DelayPET showed higher SUVmax compared with DiagPET for normal liver, pancreas and kidneys (P = 0.02). No differences were noted between EarlyPET, DiagPET and DelayPET in tumour SUVmax (P > 0.05). SUVTU/Liver and SUVTU/BP did not change between EarlyPET and DiagPET, with a slight decrease in DelayPET. Conclusion Stability in tumour SUVmax values measured at different intervals independently of tumour location, as also in normal tissues as kidneys and liver suggest that a more flexible imaging protocol may be adopted.
