Pulmonary tumor embolism derived from stomach cancer observation with serial 18F-FDG PET/CT.

abstract：:Mycotic aneurysm is a rare and life-threatening disorder. Computed tomography (CT) is considered to be the best diagnostic imaging modality that can detect an abdominal aortic aneurysm and changes in the surrounding structures. More recently, F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET would seem to hold promise for the diagnos...
