PET/CT Measurements in Transosseous Meningiomas
Parameter | Overall (n = 67) | Parafalcine/parasagittal (n = 10) | Convexity (n = 12) | Sphenoid wing (n = 42) | Cerebellopontine (n = 2) | Suprasellar/parasellar (n = 1) |
SUVmax total | 14.2 (10–22) | 10.8 (7–12) | 15.6 (10–31) | 14.8 (11–26) | 7.3 (6–9) | 12.6 (13–13) |
SUVmax intraosseous | 13.4 (10–22) | 10.0 (7–11) | 15.6 (10–31) | 14.2 (11–26) | 7.3 (6–9) | 12.6 (13–13) |
SUVmean total | 4.3 (3–6) | 3.7 (3–4) | 4.7 (3–7) | 4.5 (4–6) | 2.6 (3–3) | 4.5 (4–4) |
SUVmean intraosseous | 4.6 (3–7) | 3.4 (3–4) | 5.7 (3–8) | 5.0 (4–8) | 2.7 (3–3) | 4.8 (5–5) |
Volume total (mL) | 12.8 (7–33) | 6.4 (4–15) | 13.3 (5–18) | 17.7 (10–47) | 5.6 (3–9) | 9.9 (10–10) |
Volume intraosseous (mL) | 6.8 (3–15) | 2.7 (1–5) | 5.1 (2–11) | 9.3 (6–21) | 4.1 (2–7) | 6.8 (7–7) |
Data are median followed by interquartile range. SUVmean in total meningioma compared with intraosseous part of meningioma showed statistically significant differences on Wilcoxon signed rank testing (P < 0.001).
