  • Title: 18F-FDG PET/CT Findings in Portal Vein Thrombosis and Liver Metastases.
    Author: Surasi DS, O'Malley JP, Bhambhvani P.
    Journal: J Nucl Med Technol; 2015 Sep; 43(3):229-30. PubMed ID: 25655342.
    Abstract:
    (18)F-FDG PET/CT is a valuable noninvasive tool in oncologic imaging, and its application in the diagnosis of liver metastases has been very convincing. Both the sensitivity and the specificity of (18)F-FDG PET/CT are high for detecting liver metastases from various tumors including colorectal, breast, and lung. Such liver metastases are typically (18)F-FDG-avid. We present atypical (18)F-FDG PET findings in a lung cancer patient with known liver metastases and PVT.
