Rationale: Advanced imaging techniques allow functional information to be derived and integrated into treatment planning. Methods: A systematic review was conducted with the primary objective to evaluate the ability of functional lung imaging to predict risk of radiation pneumonitis. Secondary objectives were to evaluate dose-response relationships on post treatment functional imaging and assess the utility in including functional lung information into treatment planning. A structured search for publications was performed following PRISMA guidelines and registered on PROSPERO. Results: 814 articles were screened against review criteria and 114 publications met criteria. Methods of identifying functional lung included using CT, MRI, SPECT and PET to image ventilation or perfusion. Six studies compared differences between functional and anatomical lung imaging at predicting radiation pneumonitis. These found higher predictive values using functional lung imaging. Twenty-one studies identified a dose-response relationship on post-treatment functional lung imaging. Nineteen planning studies demonstrated the ability of functional lung optimised planning techniques to spare regions of functional lung. Meta-analysis of these studies found that mean (95% CI) functional volume receiving 20 Gy was reduced by 4.2% [95% CI: 2.3: 6.0] and mean lung dose by 2.2 Gy [95% CI: 1.2: 3.3] when plans were optimised to spare functional lung. There was significant variation between publications in the definition of functional lung. Conclusion: Functional lung imaging may have potential utility in radiation therapy planning and delivery, although significant heterogeneity was identified in approaches and reporting. Recommendations have been made based on the available evidence for future functional lung trials. Crown Copyright (C) 2018 Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
