PET imaging is becoming increasingly universal, and therefore increased liver uptake is frequently encountered. The purpose of this article is to describe and illustrate the various morphological patterns of increased metabolic activity within the liver with an emphasis on the diagnostic pitfalls and potential limitations.
Knowing the pitfalls of PET imaging, correlation with clinical background and findings from other imaging modalities are all important in the correct interpretation of increased hepatic activity on PET imaging.
正电子发射断层显像(PET)成像日益普及,因此肝脏摄取增加的情况屡见不鲜。本文旨在描述和阐释肝脏内代谢活性增加的各种形态学模式,重点关注诊断陷阱和潜在局限性。
了解PET成像的陷阱,结合临床背景以及其他成像模式的检查结果,对于正确解读PET成像上肝脏活性增加的情况均至关重要。
