FDG-PET imaging in duodenal cancer.

F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) imaging is a useful modality in the detection of various tumors, including colon cancer and gastric cancer. We evaluated a patient with duodenal cancer with multiple metastases including brain metastases using FDG-PET imaging. It revealed multiple tumor uptake in the brain, clavicular fossa, mediastinum, right adrenal gland and duodenum. These results suggest that FDG-PET imaging may be useful in detecting the primary and metastatic lesions of duodenal adenocarcinoma.

A case of renal pelvic tumor visualized by 18F-FDG-PET imaging.

18F fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (18F-FDG PET) imaging is a useful modality in detecting various tumors, including renal cell carcinoma. We evaluated a patient with renal pelvic tumor (transitional cell carcinoma) with multiple metastases using 18F-FDG PET imaging and detected abnormal increased uptake of a right renal pelvic tumor extending to the renal cortex with liver metastasis and paraaortic lymph node metastases. These results suggest that 18F-FDG PET imaging may be useful in detecting primary and metastatic lesions of renal pelvic tumor (transitional cell carcinoma).
