We herein report a case involving a 67-year-old man with concomitant progressive follicular lymphoma and gastric carcinoma. Baseline 18F-FDG PET/CT showed high metabolic activity in multiple nodal stations and a thickened gastric antrum wall, whereas 68Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT depicted very intense tracer uptake in the gastric lesion but mild uptake in the nodes. After the treatment, complete remission from lymphadenopathy was achieved, whereas the gastric lesion accumulated more radiotracers compared with baseline levels. Despite our incorrect initial assumption of B-cell transformation, molecular imaging was able to profile the characteristics of these 2 diseases.
