    Author: Tow J, Loh H, Bui C, Fuller S, Mansberg R.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 2012 Feb; 37(2):210-3. PubMed ID: 22228357.
    Abstract:
    A 56-year-old man, recently diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, was referred for a FDG PET/CT scan to stage disease. Unexpected large fluid collections with FDG-avid peripheries and central photopenia were demonstrated in the abdomen and pelvis on the FDG PET/CT study. The collections were urgently drained with subsequent resolution. After antibiotic treatment, repeat FDG PET/CT study confirmed rapidly progressive lymphoma necessitating urgent chemotherapy.
