Comparison of different automatic methods for the delineation of the total metabolic tumor volume in I–II stage Hodgkin Lymphoma

Abstract Total metabolic tumor volume (TMTV) is a promising quantitative biomarker for therapy assessment and prognosis in Hodgkin Lymphoma affected patients that allows prediction of patient outcome. The aim of this study was to evaluate the TMTV reproducibility between different sources of variabi...
