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 Fig. 64.2 The…

Fig. 66.1 PET-CT images with parenchymal window show a left solid, uneven, apical lung nodule, with branches infiltrating the surrounding parenchyma (yellow arrow). There are also multiple lymph nodes of increased…

Fig. 60.1 MIP image: The high lung deposition of FDG is determined by the condition of chronic inflammation of the interstitium and by the presence of lymphocytic alveolitis The extent of…

Fig. 58.1 The PET scan showed a focal lesion of the pancreas with a high metabolism Fig. 58.2 CT-PET showed a solid, uneven tumor in the middle third of the ascending colon,…

Fig. 56.1 MIP images before and after the axillary lymphadenectomy Fig. 56.2 CT-PET performed before surgery: multiple solid nodules in the left arm due to high metabolism metastatic involvement of the three…

Fig. 59.1 In correspondence of the body and tail of the pancreas CT-PET shows a coarse expansive, diffusely inhomogeneous solid mass, which infiltrates locoregional tissues, in particular lymph nodes, especially celiac-mesenteric…

Fig. 51.1 CT scan shows multiple bone thickening lesions. The PET characterizes the lesions with a high metabolism of glucose. This information must be critically assessed Fig. 51.2 The PET-CT scan shows…

Fig. 47.1 CT shows that the structural alteration is of benign type No areas of abnormal FDG deposition in other parts of the body examined. 47.4 Conclusions The PET scan shows…

Fig. 46.1 PET-CT: in the upper quadrants of the left breast a rough solid, irregular lesion, with modest increases in glucose metabolism is detected. Intense consumption of FDG at the level…
