Article Synopsis
- Infarcts are typically nonviable and do not show significant uptake on an 18 F-FDG PET/CT scan.
- A 53-year-old man presented with chest pain and elevated d-dimer levels, leading to a CT pulmonary angiogram which revealed incidental lung nodules.
- The subsequent 18 F-FDG PET/CT scan showed unexpected uptake in the pons, later confirmed as an acute infarct by MRI, emphasizing the need to consider non-malignant causes for FDG uptake.
