Na[18F]F PET/CT quantification in spondyloarthritis: comparative evaluation of SUV normalization approaches
Na[<sup>18</sup>F]F uptake quantification of lesions in the axial skeleton of SpA patients can be performed cross-sectionally and longitudinally with simplified uptake measures, particularly SUV<sub>peak</sub>, normalized using LBM or SV. This offers a more reliable approach to evaluating disease activity and treatment responses compared to BW.
