Deauville 5-Point Score (PET Response, Lymphoma)
Deauville 5-point score (Lugano classification, Barrington 2014) for FDG-PET response assessment in lymphoma.
Open the calculator → Runs in your browser. Data leaves only if you deliberately send a problem report from the interactive tool.
Example
- Deauville score
- 4 — uptake moderately > liver at any site
Result: Deauville score 4: uptake moderately higher than the liver, a positive scan (inadequate metabolic response).
The tool opens with these values already filled in. Replace them with your own.
What the result means
- 1-2
- Negative: no uptake above background (1) or uptake at or below the mediastinum (2) — complete metabolic response.
- 3
- Uptake above mediastinum but at or below the liver — read in the clinical context; often a good prognosis, and complete metabolic response at end of treatment.
- 4-5
- Positive: uptake moderately (4) or markedly (5) above the liver, and/or new lesions — inadequate metabolic response.
