Figure 4 Axial image of F18-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography obtained 6 mo postoperatively in a 60-year-old man had history of tongue cancer.
The image demonstrated a 2.6 cm x 1.5 cm right axillary lymph node with intense uptake (SUV 6.1, arrows), suspicious for metastasis. Biopsy of the node suggested chronic lymphadenitis with reactive lymphoid hyperplasia. SUV: Standardized uptake value.
