18F-FDG PET/CT for monitoring anti-PD-1 therapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer using SUV harmonization of results obtained with various types of PET/CT scanners used at different centers.

In patients with NSCLC treated with ICIs, tumor response based on the harmonized response criteria was associated with OS. PET response criteria using harmonized metabolic parameters may be difficult to routinely employ in daily practice due to overlapping SMD and PMD, although may have a supporting role for determining prognosis.
