Two-dimensional imaging, even with multiple views, does not provide accurate three-dimensional information concerning radionuclide distribution. Because two-dimensional imaging more or less integrates the information from the third dimension (depth),…
Fig. 44.1 Left subclavear adenopathy measuring less than a centimeter In the left para-aortic and celiac-mesenteric areas and hepatic hilum, there are numerous confluent enlarged lymph nodes, characterized by high glucose…
Fig. 78.1 The PET shows progression of disease due to the presence of a lung metastasis and lymph nodes characterized by increased deposition of FDG Fig. 78.2 The CT shows a solid…
Fig. 62.1 The MIP image shows metabolic response of the left lung mass but there is a clear progression of disease in all mediastinal and abdominal injuries. Moreover, we find the…
Fig. 18.1 PET scan before chemotherapy Absence of pathological metabolism in other body segments examined. 18.4 Conclusions The PET scan shows partial response to treatment, due to persistence of mild metabolic…
Fig. 76.1 The PET scan shows multiple enlarged lymph nodes with high glucose metabolism in the celiac-mesenteric-aortic, left lumbo-aortic regions; bilaterally in the iliac region, even though more pronounced on the…
Fig. 23.1 Presence of some lymph nodes in the left para-aortic region that compress the pyeloureteral junction without causing obstruction (MIP image) 23.4 Conclusions The PET scan shows extended locoregional recurrence…
Fig. 73.1 PET scan showed abnormal glucose consumption of the right lung hilar nodule Softer carbohydrate consumption of the right posterolateral tenth rib, SUV max 2.8. No areas of abnormal metabolism…
Fig. 72.1 The PET scan shows high metabolic activity secondary to post actinic reaction at the pulmonary hilum and right basal pleural granulomatous reaction secondary to ipsilateral talcage Increased FDG deposition…
Fig. 67.1 The PET scan suggests granulomatous reaction of surgical scar to be confirmed by follow-up The CT-PET demonstrates lung fields to be asymmetric due to previous atypical pulmonary resection with…
