in this case we report the detection of lymph node metastases in a 52 years old patient with mycosis fungoides utilising 18f- fdg-pet/ct which led to a change in the management of the patient.

background: despite the relative success of surgical resection followed by proton, proton/photon, or conventional radiotherapy in terms of recurrence-free survival, chordomas are still associated with a high rate of recurrence. to our knowledge there are only very few reported cases of this rare tumor detected by f-18 fdg-pet. materials and methods: in this case we show the significance of f-18...

BACKGROUND Cystic lymph node metastasis (CLNM) is commonly found in human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated tonsillar squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy in detecting cystic lymph node metastasis from tonsillar SCC between contrast-enhanced CT, ¹⁸F- fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET), non-enhanced ¹⁸F-FDG-PET/CT, and contrast-enh...

we report a case of a 75-year old man that came at hematologist’s attention for lymphoma evaluation due to axillary lymph node enlargement and fever. thorax, abdomen and pelvis contrast-enhanced computed tomography (cect) showed lymph nodes, spleen and liver lesions. axillary lymph node biopsy was performed and the diagnosis of marginal zone lymphoma (mzl) at stage iv was postulated, then the p...

Neurolymphomatosis is a rare manifestation of non-Hodgkin lymphoma characterized by infiltration of peripheral nerves, nerve roots, plexus and cranial nerves by malignant lymphocytes. This report presents positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT)imaging with 2-deoxy-2-18F-fluoro-D-glucose (18F-FDG) in 3 cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma with nerve infiltration, including one newly d...

BACKGROUND The choice of imaging before liver surgery is debated regarding the use of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, computed tomography (CT), and positron emission tomography (PET). No studies have compared contrast-enhanced PET/CT with superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)-enhanced MR imaging. PURPOSE To compare PET/CT with superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)-enhanced MR imaging, PET, and C...

results fdg-pet/ct findings showed no evidence of malignant disease. there was diffusely increased fdg in soft tissue around the shoulders and hips and fdg-positive axillary lymph nodes consistent with pmr. background remitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting edema (rs3pe) is a rare, but well-defined syndrome comprising polyarthritis with symmetrical synovitis of the small joint...
