Increased FDG activity in a dermatofibroma in esophageal cancer patient.

abstract：:On In-111 WBC images, diffuse homogeneous uptake of the radiopharmaceutical should be present throughout the liver. The authors present a case of a febrile patient with polycystic liver disease in whom the normal diffuse uptake was not seen. Instead, the images demonstrated focal areas of uptake, which suggested infec...
