Quantitative PET parameters-maximum standardised uptake value (SUVmax), metabolic tumour volume (MTV), target-to-background ratio (TBR), and maximum diameter-along with serum PTH and calcium levels, were compared between digital and analogue PET scanners using the Mann-Whitney U test. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis identified optimal threshold values. ML models (LASSO, decision tree, Gaussian naïve Bayes) were trained on harmonised quantitative features to distinguish PA from PH.RESULTSDigital PET detected significantly smaller lesions than analogue PET, in both metabolic volume (1.32 ± 1.39 vs. 2.36 ± 2.01 cc; p < 0.001) and maximum diameter (8.35 ± 4.32 vs. 11.87 ± 5.29 mm; p < 0.001).

We developed and validated the Edge Proximity Score (EPS), a novel [18F]FDG PET/CT-based spatial imaging feature that quantifies the displacement of SUVmax relative to the tumor centroid and perimeter, to assess tumor aggressiveness and predict progression-free survival (PFS).METHODSThis retrospective study included 244 NSCLC patients with preoperative [18F]FDG PET/CT. EPS was computed from normalized SUVmax-to-centroid and SUVmax-to-perimeter distances. A total of 115 PET radiomics features were extracted and standardized. Eight machine learning models (80:20 split) were trained to predict lymphovascular invasion (LVI), visceral pleural invasion (VPI), and spread through air spaces (STAS), with feature importance assessed using SHAP. Prognostic analysis was conducted using multivariable Cox regression. A survival prediction model incorporating EPS was externally validated in the TCIA cohort. RNA sequencing data from 76 TCIA patients were used for transcriptomic and immune profiling.RESULTSEPS was significantly elevated in tumors with LVI, VPI, and STAS (P < 0.001), consistently ranked among the top SHAP features, and was an independent predictor of PFS (HR = 2.667, P = 0.015). The EPS-based nomogram achieved AUCs of 0.67, 0.70, and 0.68 for predicting 1-, 3-, and 5-year PFS in the TCIA validation cohort.
