Radio-Treated Cancer of the Posterior Hemi-Circumference of the Anal Canal: Post-Actinic Fibrosis

Fig. 14.1

MIP image: presence of slight and widespread increase in the glucose consumption of the axial skeleton, typical of bone marrow rebound

Modest increase in metabolism in the lower rectum-anus due to post-actinic fibrosis, SUV max 2.3.

14.4 Conclusions

The PET scan is negative for recurrence of disease with high glucose metabolism. (See Figs. 14.2, 14.3).

Fig. 14.2

Absence of lytic bone lesions on CT and focal areas with high metabolism at PET, excludes progression of skeletal disease
