Nuclear Medicine MD, PhD

Following only three cycles of Pola-R-CHP therapy (consisting of Polatuzumab vedotin, Rituximab, Doxorubicin, Cyclophosphamide, and Prednisolone), a 25 y.o patient diagnosed with large B-cell lymphoma with germinal center B-cell-like phenotype achieved a complete metabolic response. On December 20, the patient underwent a baseline 18F-FDG PET/CT scan, revealing a sizable and highly metabolically active FDG tissue mass characterized by invasive growth. The mass extended from the upper abdomen through the diaphragm to the mediastinal region, with a Deauville 5PS score. Following precisely two months and three cycles of therapy, the interim PET/CT scan demonstrated total metabolic resolution of the thoracoabdominal mass, with no FDG uptake exceeding background levels. The Deauville score was 1PS, indicating a complete metabolic response. #medical #nuclearmedicine #nucmed #molecularimaging #petct #fdg #lymphoma #haematology
