18-Fluoro-deoxyglucose uptake in inflammatory hepatic adenoma: A case report.

Positron emission tomography computed tomography (PET-CT) using 18-Fluoro-deoxyglucose (FDG) is an imaging modality that reflects cellular glucose metabolism. Most cancers show an uptake of FDG and benign tumors do not usually behave in such a way. The authors report herein the case of a 38-year-old female patient with a past medical history of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and pheochromocytoma, in whom a liver lesion had been detected with PET-CT.
