Table 2 Diagnostic performance of various parameters based on receiver operating characteristic curve analysis

	Cutoff	AUC (95%CI)	Sensitivity (%)	Specificity (%)	P value
SUV_max	10.95	0.853 (0.709-0.997)	66.7	100	0.001
SUV_mean	4.32	0.816 (0.655-0.976)	73.3	88.2	0.002
TLG	248.1	0.788 (0.630-0.947)	71.5	76.5	0.006
TNR	2.53	0.808 (0.643-0.973)	80	76.5	0.003
TBR	4.46	0.776 (0.597-0.956)	70.2	82.4	0.008

SUV_max: Maximum standardized uptake value; SUV_mean: Mean standardized uptake value; TLG: Total lesion glycolysis; TNR: Tumor-to-normal background ratio; TBR: Tumor-to-blood pool ratio; AUC: Area under the curve; CI: Confidence interval.
