Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of computed tomography (CT) and [F-18]fluoro-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) for prediction of progression-free survival of Hodgkin's disease (HD) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) patients after completion of therapy. Patients and methods: CT and FDG-PET were performed in 40 HD, 17 indolent NHL and 44 aggressive NHL patients (29 women, 72 men; aged 41 14 years) in a median of 2 months after therapy. Progression-free survival was evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Independent prognostic factors were identified by means of Cox proportional hazards model. Results: CT imaging results were progressive disease (PD) in five, stable disease (SD) in 57, and partial response (PR) or complete remission (CR) in 39 patients. FDG-PET suggested residual lymphoma in 24 patients. Three-year progression-free survival rates after exclusion of five PD patients were: 100% (PET negative; CT: PR or CR), 81% (PET negative; CT: SD), 21% (PET positive; CT: SD) and 0% (PET positive; CT: PR). FDG-PET (P < 0.0001) and bulky disease (P < 0.05) were identified as independent prognostic variables. Conclusions: Among lymphoma patients with PR and SD on CT, FDG-PET discriminated those destined to progress into a low risk of <= 20% and a high risk for recurrence of >= 80%.
