Aberrant Vascular Anatomy Associated With Artifactual Focal Avidity in the Liver on PSMA PET.

68 Ga-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT is a valuable tool for staging and restaging of prostate cancer. Prostate-specific membrane antigen expression is not specific to prostate cancer, as it is expressed in normal tissues as well as in neoplastic and nonneoplastic processes. Awareness of the broad possibility of lesions with PSMA avidity is necessary to recognize normal variants and avoid potential pitfalls in image interpretation. We present a series of cases showing physiologic focal PSMA avidity in hepatic segment IVb. We correlate this uptake with aberrant hepatic vasculature. The awareness of this variant is important for accurate image interpretation to prevent additional invasive procedures, undue treatment escalation, and denial of curative treatment to patients.
