Figure 1 Axial image of F18-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography obtained 3 mo postoperatively in a 55-year-old woman with history of T2aN0Mx myxofibrosarcoma of the left ankle.
Compared to preoperative image, there was a new 2.3 cm left inguinal lymph node with intense uptake (SUV 8.0, arrows), suspicious for nodal metastasis. Biopsy of the node revealed reactive lymphadenitis. SUV: Standardized uptake value.
