Two cases of pathologically confirmed intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas in 68-year-old male patients. In both cases (A-H, case 1; I-P, case 2), CT scans (B, F, case 1; J, N, case 2) revealed intrahepatic bile duct dilation and suspected nodular lesions. While F-18 FDG PET/CT (A, C, D, case 1; I, K, L, case 2) failed to demonstrate abnormal tracer uptake (SUVmax 3.5, TBR 1.3 in Case 1; SUVmax 2.6, TBR 1.2 in Case 2), F-18 FAPI-04 PET/CT (E, G, H, case 1; M, O, P, case 2 ) showed positive uptake in the nodular lesions (SUVmax 9.7, TBR 3.5 in Case 1; SUVmax 9.6, TBR 3.3 in Case 2).

The number of all visible structures was fewer at an ambient light of 500 lux compared to both 25 and 75 lux. In addition, structure visibility was better with a gray wall color at all ambient light levels. Paired comparison between monitors showed better structure visibility on the high specification monitor for all condition.
