Figure 1 A 52-year-old man with synchronous multiple esophageal cancers.
The first positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) images revealed multiple hypermetabolic esophageal lesions and hypermetabolic supraclavicular, mediastinal lymph nodes (arrows in A, C, E). PET/CT imaging guided radiation plan (arrows in B). The second PET/CT images after 50Gy radiation treatment demonstrated shrinkage of lesions and decrease of fluorodeoxyglucose uptake (arrows D, F).
