Cavernosal Metastasis From Prostate Cancer on 18F-Fluciclovine PET/CT.

abstract：PURPOSE:To examine the feasibility of simultaneous acquisition of F-fluoroethylcholine (F-choline) PET and functional MRI (standardized uptake value [SUV]max/mean and apparent diffusion coefficient [ADC]mean), using a hybrid PET/MRI scanner, for diagnosis and response assessment in a cohort of children with astrocytic ...

abstract：:An 80-year-old woman was evaluated with F-fluorocholine PET/CT in suspicion of a parathyroid adenoma. No focal parathyroid tracer uptake suggestive of adenoma was found, and instead a unilateral multinodular goiter without elevated F-fluorocholine uptake was diagnosed. In addition, focal uptake was found in a cutaneou...
