Résumé
Prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) is used to decrease the probability of developing brain metastases in patients with small cell lung cancer and has been linked to deleterious cognitive effects. Although no well-established imaging markers for these effects exist, previous studies have shown that structural and metabolic changes in the brain can be detected with MRI and PET. This study used an image processing technique called texture analysis to explore whether global changes in brain glucose metabolism could be characterized in PET images.
