“…Interestingly, TLG 1 showed a significant difference between the two cancers [15,17,[27][28][29]. In ovarian cancer, Chung et al [25] reported that MTV and TLG had a significant association with recurrence [16]. As in our study, TLG showed a significant difference between the two groups, and we consider that TLG has potential as a diagnostic parameter.…”

“…Recently, metabolic tumor volume (MTV) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) have become remarkable parameters as prognostic factors for various cancers [15][16][17][18]. However, there are only a few studies using MTV or TLG in ovarian cancer patients; most of these studies used MTV and TLG as prognostic factors of recurrence rather than as diagnostic factors [19,20].…”

“…SUVmax based on body weight and MTV were determined by the attenuation-corrected PET data using volume viewer software. Of the various methods described for determining metabolic volume, a fixed threshold of SUV 2.5 was used [18,22,23]. The boundaries of tumor were drawn large enough to incorporate each target lesion in the axial, coronal and sagittal FDG PET/CT images.…”

“…These parameters were recently reported to have prognostic value in several cancers, including lung, cervix, and ovary; however, there are limited data regarding EC. [11][12][13][14][15] We speculated that MTV and TLG, determined using preoperative PET/CT, could be prognostic factors predicting recurrence in EC patients. This study was designed to identify the prognostic value of these parameters for predicting recurrence and disease-free survival (DFS) in EC patients who underwent primary surgery.…”
