Positron emission tomography - computed tomography (PET-CT) with fluorine-18-fluorodeoxy-d-glucose (F-FDG) has an increasing role in head and neck imaging. Interpretation of F-FDG-tracer uptake in the head and neck requires an understanding of normal physiological patterns of tracer uptake, as well as knowledge of potential pitfalls and atypical patterns. This article presents a select series of unusual patterns of F-FDG uptake on PET-CT imaging of the head and neck.
使用氟-18-氟脱氧-d-葡萄糖(F-FDG)的正电子发射断层扫描-计算机断层扫描(PET-CT)在头颈部成像中的作用日益增加。对头颈部F-FDG示踪剂摄取情况的解读需要了解示踪剂摄取的正常生理模式,以及潜在陷阱和非典型模式的相关知识。本文展示了一系列在头颈部PET-CT成像中F-FDG摄取的异常模式。
