Left level IIa metastatic lymphadenopathy (arrows) from the same patient in Figure 3 with squamous cell carcinoma of the left palatine tonsil was identified on both contrast-enhanced CT (A) and pre-treatment PET/CT (B) with maximal SUV: 12.1. After treatment, the lymph node was no longer hypermetabolic at 10-wk PET/CT (C) with maximal SUV: 2.5, representing complete response. PET/CT: Positron-emission tomography/computed tomography; SUV: Standardized uptake value.
