ABSTRACT
Whole-body PET-CT scanning has been used in the diagnosis and treatment of tumor to providing functional and morphological imaging. As the most widely used semi-quantitative analysis index, the cutoff value of SUV would affect the final diagnosis, therapeutic regimen and prognosis estimation. Therefore, the article reviews the influential factors of SUV, its correction methods, its cutoff values of differential various tumors and the progress of SUV. Although there is no acknowledged cutoff value of SUV in tumor diagnosis, SUV is still an important semi-quantitative index, and its rational and prudent use would increase both of the sensitivity and specificity in tumor diagnosis.
