Key Points

  • The study aims to evaluate the prognostic value of the Curie score derived from 123I-MIBG SPECT/CT imaging in pediatric neuroblastoma.
  • Analysis of 123I-MIBG SPECT/CT imaging results in pediatric patients with neuroblastoma.
  • Assessment of the Curie score post-induction therapy.
  • Evaluation of patient outcomes based on Curie score levels.
  • A Curie score of 6 or lower is strongly linked to better prognosis.
  • Patients with lower scores may benefit from additional treatment strategies.
  • The Curie score serves as a key prognostic indicator for patient management.

Abstract

This study demonstrates that the Curie score derived from 123I-MIBG SPECT/CT imaging after induction therapy is strongly associated with the prognosis of pediatric patients with MIBG-avid stage 4 high-risk neuroblastoma. Notably, patients achieving a Curie score of 6 or lower after induction therapy may benefit from subsequent consolidation and maintenance treatment strategies.
