Figure 2 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose and 11C-acetate positron emission tomography in hepatocellular carcinoma.
In a patient with HCC, maximal intensity projection (A), PET (B), and PET/CT fusion (C) images of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose-PET does not show a lesion of hot uptake. However, the same image set of 11C-acetate PET (D-F) shows hot uptake in the S7 segment of the liver. PET: Positron emission tomography; HCC: Hepatocellular carcinoma; CT: Computed tomography.
