    Abstract Introduction background: This study evaluated the impact of adipose tissue indices on prognosis of HL.
    Methods: Fifty-five patients with newly diagnosed Hodgkin Lymphoma were evaluated retrospectively for association with adipose tissue indices (total abdominal tissue volume, radiodensity, subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue SUVmax value and prognostic factors for Hodgkin Lymphoma such as IPS-3, IPS-7, stage, sedimentation, progression free and overall survival.
    Results: For IPS-3, SAT SUVmax and TAAT radiodensity were significantly increased in high-risk patients (2and 3) compared to group 0 and 1. For IPS-7, total abdominal adipose volume was significantly decreased in high-risk patients, SAT SUVmax significantly increased in high-risk patients and decreased in low-risk patients. In addition, SAT SUVmax was significantly increased in patients with high sedimentation rate, with B symptoms and who passed away during follow-up. SAT SUVmax showed moderate positive correlation with sedimentation, IPS-3, IPS-7, and stage. In addition, it was observed that TAAT radiodensity and SAT SUVmax were significantly better for determining prognosis than other adipose tissue indices. Roc analysis showed that the diagnostic value of all adipose tissue indices in predicting IPS-3 and IPS-7 prognoses were statistically significant.
    Conclusion: SAT SUVmax and TAAT radiodensity were two new and independent markers with diagnostic value in predicting prognosis.

    Abstract Background: Sarcopenia is associated with poor prognosis in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients.
    Purpose: To investigate the prognostic value of body composition measurement changes measured by computed tomography (CT) in mCRC patients.
    Material and methods: The abdominal skeletal muscle density (SMD) and skeletal muscle (SMI) indices, as well as the visceral (VATI) and subcutaneous fat tissue (SATI) indices, were calculated by automatic segmentation method on the abdominal CT images obtained before (n = 71) and after chemotherapy (n = 52). Skeletal muscle gauge (SMG = SMD × SMI) was calculated. We calculated the percentage change of body composition measurements with respect to the first measurements. The cutoff value for the change in SMG was calculated by receiver operating characteristic analysis. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses were performed to calculate the prognostic value of age, gender, tumor location, metastasis site and carcinoembriogenic antigen (CEA) elevation, hypoalbuminemia, body mass index classification, presence of sarcopenia and SMG changes in terms of overall survival.
    Results: There was a significant association between SMG change and mortality (
    Conclusion: In mCRC patients, hypoalbuminemia and highly decreased SMG are significant prognostic factors for overall survival. Therefore, we suggest that the change in SMG calculated in follow-up images should also be evaluated in the prognosis estimation of this patient group.

    Abstract Objectives: The metabolic activities of tumors can be calculated volumetrically during positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging using metabolic tumor volume (MTV) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG). This study aimed to evaluate the roles of MTV and TLG in predicting the malignancy risk of incidental thyroid nodules detected by PET/CT imaging.
    Methods: Active metabolic areas of each section were manually drawn by region of interest to calculate the MTV of nodules, and all obtained values were then summed. TLG, the product of mean standardized uptake value and MTV, was calculated by multiplying two values. All participants underwent thyroid ultrasonography imaging. All nodules were divided into risk classes according to the European Thyroid Image Reporting and Data System (EU-TIRADS) that was developed by the European Thyroid Association. The American Thyroid Association Guidelines were used to determine which thyroid nodules would undergo thyroid fine-needle biopsy (FNAB). Results were classified according to the Bethesda scoring system.
    Results: TLG levels were significantly higher in malignant or malignant-suspicious nodules than in benign nodules (p=0.013). Although MTV levels were high in malignant or malignant-suspicious nodules than in benign and non-diagnostic nodules, it was statistically insignificant at limit values (p=0.079). Areas under curve (AUC) were 0.726 (p=0.005) and AUC: 0.668 (p=0.039) for TLG and MTV, respectively. The 2.3 g cut-off value of TLG has a sensitivity of 85.7% and specificity of 59.0%. The 1.7 mL cut-off value of MTV has a sensitivity of 78.6% and specificity of 60.4%.
    Conclusion: We believe that TLG evaluation will be useful in predicting high-risk malignancy or malignancy suspicion based on EU-TIRADS risk classification of incidental thyroid nodules detected in PET/CT images. We believe that unnecessary thyroid FNABs can be avoided for thyroid incidental nodules if such relation and cut-off values are determined and that it will be useful in hastening the operation of the necessary patients.
