Fig. 33.1 PET-CT scan shows multiple, heterogeneously hypodense, enlarged lymph nodes with a high carbohydrate metabolism that can be seen also in the coronal reconstructions Fig. 33.2 On CT-PET it is evident…
Fig. 71.1 CT shows dysmorphic kidneys, sharply increased in size, structure subverted by numerous coarse parenchymal cysts that have abnormal deposition of the tracer at the PET scan. Absence of focal…
Fig. 55.1 The PET scan shows progression of disease for the presence of two metastatic small lumps under the skin, clinically appreciable in the left leg The deposition of glucose described…
Fig. 50.1 PET scan shows a solitary lesion of the hip bone with limited carbohydrate metabolism It suggests follow-up in time to exclude a focal lesion with low carbohydrate consumption. See…
Fig. 52.1 The PET-CT axial and MIP images a–c show the progression of the metastasis to the sternum during follow-up and the absent response to medical therapy. The CT shows the…
Fig. 77.1 The solid lung mass in the right postero-basal segment, which was already examined with a FNAB, shows pathological increase in the consumption of glucose, SUV max 11.5 No areas…
Fig. 75.1 Intense, pathological glucose consumption of the gastric wall, more intense at the body and the fundus, SUV max 16 Gross perigastric lymph node with high metabolism, SUV max 12….
Fig. 25.1 coarse iliac-obturatory left mass, shows modest consumption of glucose, SUV max 2.5 No focal lesions in the remaining body segments examined. 25.4 Conclusions The iliac-obturatory left mass, partially colliquated…
Fig. 70.1 MIP image: bone metastases have a metabolic activity higher than that of the primary tumor, that probably has a contextual internal colliquation Fig. 70.2 The PET-CT scan shows a solid…
Fig. 40.1 No areas of abnormal metabolism 40.4 Conclusions The scan shows mediastinal lymphadenopathy, probably of granulomatous nature. Histological exam is necessary to define the treatment program and completely exclude a…
