Mucinous Cancer Recurrence

Fig. 64.1

CT-PET shows partial resection the lower left lung lobe, with centimetric contextual fibrotic tissue thickening and striae—scars that reach the hilum; mild carbohydrate consumption of the lesion

The coronal reconstructions show a bone-producing lesion to the greater trochanter of the right femur, that has limited metabolism

MIP image in patients with liver transplantation, FDG-PET examination frequently shows nonspecific background high uptake due to the slow clearance of the tracer, especially in the abdomen. As immunosuppressed patients have a higher incidence of new cancers and are therefore considered a high-risk category, some authors suggest surveillance with CT-PET
