Metabolic Super Scan in 18F-FDG PET/CT Imaging
A 50-yr-old man presented with intermittent hemoptysis and was diagnosed small cell lung cancer. (18)F-FDG PET/CT for staging demonstrated extensive hypermetabolic lesions throughout the skeleton and liver. Interestingly, skeletal muscles of limbs, mediastinum, bowel, and especially brain showed very low FDG uptake. Because of some characteristics in common with super scan on skeletal scintigra...
متن کاملPeritoneal Super Scan on 18F-FDG PET/CT in two patients with Lymphoma
Peritoneal lymphomatosis is an extremely rare presentation of lymphoma. Due to its relative low frequency, it receives much less attention than peritoneal carcinomatosis. The challenge is to differentiate between lymphomatosis and carcinomatosis, as well as peritoneal tuberculosis or other pathologic entities within the peritoneal cavity based essentially on radiologic features. 18</...

This article provides an overview of the role of FDG (fluorodeoxyglucose) PET (positron emission tomography) CT (computed tomography) for assessment in patients with colorectal cancer. A summary of key lear...
متن کاملPeritoneal Super Scan on 18F - FDG PET-CT in a Patient of Burkitt's Lymphoma
Peritoneal lymphomatosis is seen less frequently, but when seen, it is mostly associated with aggressive variants of malignancies. FDG uptake has been reported in peritoneal lymphomatosis both in DLBCL and Burkitt's lymphoma. We report a case of Burkitt's lymphoma with involvement of entire peritoneum, which looks like a "peritoneal super scan" on FDG PET-CT.
متن کامل18F-FDG super bone marrow uptake
The present study was performed to investigate whether the markedly 2-deoxy-2-(fluorine-18) fluoro-D-glucose (F-FDG) uptake in the bone marrow (BM) is a presentation of malignant infiltration (MI).Super bone marrow uptake (super BMU) was used to name the markedly F-FDG uptake on BM, which was similar to or higher than that of the brain. From April 2008 to December 2015, 31 patients with such pr...
