Many calcified nodules are encountered on the (18)F-FDG PET/CT scan and even though most of them are benign, the possibility of calcified pulmonary metastases (CPM) should be considered. The CT portion can often differentiate benign diseases due to their morphology. Measuring SUVmax is very important. Understanding the mechanism of calcification in malignant metastatic pulmonary lesions may be useful to suggest their origin.
在（18）F-FDG PET/CT扫描中会发现许多钙化结节，尽管其中大多数是良性的，但仍应考虑钙化性肺转移瘤（CPM）的可能性。CT部分通常可以根据其形态来鉴别良性疾病。测量SUVmax非常重要。了解恶性转移性肺病变中钙化的机制可能有助于推断其来源。
