Figure1: A) Initial whole body FDG PET/CT scan with arrow demonstrating retroperitoneal and pelvic lymphadenopathy which are hypermetabolic with mean standard uptake value of this activity ranging between 3-5.7; B) Second whole body FDG PET/CT scan (6 months after finishing pelvic radiation for relapse of Hodgkin's lymphoma) with arrow demonstrating a new 4.8x2.6 cm hypermetabolic vaginal mass with mean standard uptake value ranging between 7.2 -11.5; C) Third whole
body FDG PET /CT scan (3 weeks after finishing 4 cycles of chemo-immunotherapy with R-EPOCH) demonstrating complete
resolution of the hypermetabolic vaginal mass. Anterior uptake is secondary to normal bladder activity (FDG excretion by the
kidneys). (Page 13) |
