Brain MRI and F-18 FDG brain and whole-body PET/CT images. (A) No obvious abnormalities were found in axial and sagittal slices from T2-weighted MR images. (B) Whole cerebellar cortex had diffuse F-18 FDG hypermetabolism in PET/CT brain images, with SUVmax of 25.91. (C and D) Whole-body F-18 FDG-PET/CT showing distended bladder. TLG = total lesion glycolysis; MTV = metabolic tumor volume. Image and caption courtesy of the Journal of Nuclear Medicine.
