ROC curve analysis of T/N ratio (blue curve) and SUVmax (green curve) of 8F-FAMT to differentiate between HGGs and LGGs. Area under the curve was 0.776 for T/N ratio (p = 0.007, 95% CI 0.623–0.928, optimal cutoff 3.37) and 0.675 for SUVmax (p = 0.087, 95% CI 0.497–0.852, optimal cutoff 3.45). ROC curve analysis of T/N ratio (orange curve) and SUVmax (purple curve) of 8F-FDG to differentiate between HGGs and LGGs. Area under the curve was 0.742 for T/N ratio (p = 0.018, 95% CI 0.575–0.909, optimal cutoff 0.92) and 0.716 for SUVmax (p = 0.034, 95% CI 0.510–0.923, optimal cutoff 5.85)
