F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET) is highly sensitive and specific for the detection of nodal and extranodal disease in patients with malignant lymphoma. However, no previous reports have shown lymphomatous involvement of the small bowel that was recognized on the basis of FDG-PET imaging findings. The authors present two cases of clinically unsuspected small bowel involvement by mantle cell lymphoma that were initially detected on FDG PET.
F-18氟脱氧葡萄糖正电子发射断层扫描（FDG PET）在检测恶性淋巴瘤患者的淋巴结和结外病变方面具有高度敏感性和特异性。然而，以前尚无报告显示基于FDG-PET成像结果识别出的小肠淋巴瘤累及情况。作者报告了两例最初在FDG PET上检测到的、临床未怀疑的套细胞淋巴瘤累及小肠的病例。
