OBJECTIVE 18F-FDG PET captures the relationship between glucose metabolism and synaptic activity, allowing for modeling brain function through metabolic connectivity. We investigated tumor-induced modifications of brain metabolic connectivity. METHODS Forty-three patients with left hemispheric tumors and 18F-FDG PET/MRI were retrospectively recruited. We included 37 healthy controls (HCs) from the database CERMEP-IDB-MRXFDG. We analyzed the whole brain and right versus left hemispheres connectivity in patients and HC, frontal versus temporal tumors, active tumors versus radiation necrosis, and patients with high Karnofsky performance score (KPS = 100) versus low KPS (KPS < 70). Results were compared with 2-sided t test (P < 0.05). RESULTS Twenty high-grade glioma, 4 low-grade glioma, and 19 metastases were included. The patients' whole-brain network displayed lower connectivity metrics compared with HC (P < 0.001), except assortativity and betweenness centrality (P = 0.001). The patients' left hemispheres showed decreased similarity, and lower connectivity metrics compared with the right (P < 0.01), with the exception of betweenness centrality (P = 0.002). HC did not show significant hemispheric differences. Frontal tumors showed higher connectivity metrics (P < 0.001) than temporal tumors, but lower betweenness centrality (P = 4.5-7). Patients with high KPS showed higher distance local efficiency (P = 0.01), rich club coefficient (P = 0.0048), clustering coefficient (P = 0.00032), betweenness centrality (P = 0.008), and similarity (P = 0.0027) compared with low KPS. Patients with active tumor(s) (14/43) demonstrated significantly lower connectivity metrics compared with necroses. CONCLUSIONS Tumors cause reorganization of metabolic brain networks, characterized by formation of new connections and decreased centrality. Patients with frontal tumors retained a more efficient, centralized, and segregated network than patients with temporal tumors. Stronger metabolic connectivity was associated with higher KPS.
