Relapse-free survival curve showing TLG for each threshold. SUVmax, maximum standardized uptake value; MTV, metabolic tumor volume; TLG, total lesion glycolysis; TUR, tumor-to-liver uptake ratio; SUL, SUV normalized to lean body mass. Relapse-free survival curves of the patients were divided by values below and above the cut-off value obtained using ROC analysis. For all the parameters for TLG, particularly 40% of tumor SUVmax for TLG (TLG 40%), the values above the cut-off value were more frequently associated with recurrence than the values below the cut-off value
