Retrospective study assesses therapeutic response and prognostic value in DLBCL using 18F-FDG PET-CT, suggesting enhanced treatment strategies.

Following treatment, 70.0% of DLBCL patients achieved complete response, with 58.3% maintaining it at 12 months.
The ΔSUVmax method demonstrated higher sensitivity (81.33%) and specificity (92.33%), indicating strong predictive capability.
Analysis utilized retrospective assessment methods, integrating Deauville 5-point scale and ΔSUVmax for evaluations.
Results support the integration of 18F-FDG PET-CT into clinical practice for improved patient prognosis and treatment optimization.
