摘要
Fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) is an ideal diagnostic and therapeutic target in malignant tumors. However, the knowledge of kinetic modeling and parametric imaging of 68Ga-FAPI is limited. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the pharmacokinetics of 68Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT in pancreatic cancer and gastric cancer and to conduct parametric imaging of dynamic total-body data compared with SUV imaging. Methods: Dynamic total-body 68Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT was performed on 13 patients. The lesion time-activity curves were fitted by 3-compartment models and multigraphical models. The kinetics parameters derived from the 2-tissue reversible compartment model (2T4K) and multigraphical models were analyzed. Parametric [Formula: see text] imaging was generated using the 2T4K and Logan models, and their performances were evaluated compared with SUV images. Results: 2T4K had the lowest Akaike information criterion value, and its fitting curves matched excellently with the origin time-activity curves. Visual assessment revealed that the [Formula: see text](2T4K) images and [Formula: see text](Logan with spatial constraint [SC]) images both showed less image noise and higher lesion conspicuity compared with SUV images. Objective image quality assessment demonstrated that parametric [Formula: see text](2T4K) images and parametric [Formula: see text](Logan with SC) images had a 5.0-fold and 5.0-fold higher average signal-to-noise ratio and 3.6-fold and 4.1-fold higher average contrast-to-noise ratio compared with conventional SUV images, respectively. In addition, no significant differences in signal-to-noise ratio and contrast-to-noise of pathologic lesions were observed between parametric [Formula: see text](2T4K) images and parametric [Formula: see text](Logan with SC) images (all P > 0.05). Conclusions: The 2T4K model was the preferred compartment model. Total-body parametric imaging of 68Ga-FAPI-04 PET yielded superior quantification beyond SUV with enhanced lesion contrast, which may serve as a promising imaging method to make an early diagnosis, to better reflect tumor characterization, or to allow evaluation of treatment response. [Formula: see text](2T4K) images are comparable in image quality and consistent to [Formula: see text](Logan with SC) images in lesions conspicuity; however, [Formula: see text](Logan with SC) images presented an appealing alternative to [Formula: see text](2T4K) images because of their simplicity.
