We describe a case of 47-year-old woman affected by human epidermal growth factor receptor-2-positive breast cancer with a diffuse leptomeningeal carcinomatosis. An intense uptake of F-choline was reported at fused PET/MRI images in the brain, compatible with a diffuse leptomeningeal disease. This case highlights that F-choline PET would be used for the identification of leptomeningeal involvement in patients affected by breast cancer, as a support of MRI images.
我们描述了一例 47 岁女性，患有人表皮生长因子受体-2 阳性乳腺癌伴弥漫性软脑膜癌病。融合 PET/MRI 图像显示脑内 F-胆碱摄取明显增加，符合弥漫性软脑膜疾病。该病例强调，F-胆碱 PET 可用于识别乳腺癌患者脑膜受累情况，作为 MRI 图像的补充。
