Abstract
Methods 42 patients (median age 60.2 years, range 36.8-80.2; 19 males) with anal SCC, who received CRT with pretreatment 18F-FDG PET/CT were retrospectively reviewed. CTTA was performed on the largest tumour diameter CT image using TexRAD software. CTTA used a filtration-histogram technique, extracting fine, medium and coarse texture features, followed by quantification of histogram parameters. SUVmax, metabolic tumour volume(MTV) and total...
