    Serial 124I-omburtamab images in patient with metastatic neuroblastoma with leptomeningeal disease: anterior maximum-intensity projections (A), sagittal PET projections (B), and fused images (C) from D0, D1, and D2 show activity within ventricles and CSF canal that decreases over time. Systemic activity is seen in liver and bladder in D1 and D2. Clearance from ventricles is slower (long arrows). Pooling is also seen along cauda equina (short arrow).

    CSF dose estimates for 131I omburtamab: 124I-omburtamab PET estimates vs. actual 124I-omburtamab CSF samples. (A) Scatterplot showing estimated radiation doses for 131I-omburtamab in units of cGy/MBq. x-axis shows dose values estimated from 124I-8H9 PET region-of-interest data vs. doses estimated from 124I-8H9 CSF sample counts on y-axis. Pearson correlation coefficient was calculated to show correlation between PET region of interest vs. sample count data. This coefficient is 0.00655 with P value of 0.96, indicating no correlation. Solid and dashed lines represent lines of correlation and identity, respectively. (B) Bland–Altman plot showing mean difference between PET region-of-interest dose and CSF sample–based dose estimates on y-axis vs. average of 2 dose estimates on x-axis; 95% confidence intervals for mean difference was determined using R package “Bland–Altman Leh.” (C) Scatterplot comparing radiation doses (cGy/MBq) from posttherapy 131I-omburtamab samples (y-axis) vs. pretherapy 124I-omburtamab samples (x-axis). Pearson coefficient is 0.084 with P value of 0.52, indicating no correlation. Solid and dashed lines represent lines of correlation and identity, respectively.
