Asymmetrically Increased Uptake in the Muscles of Right Chest and Right Upper Arm on F-18 FDG PET/CT: A Case Report

氟-18 FDG正子電腦斷層出現右胸及右上手臂肌肉不對稱攝取增加之徵象:一病例報告

摘要


氟-18去氧葡萄糖於正子電腦斷層檢查是非侵入性且可作為多種癌症的診斷工具。氟-18去氧葡萄糖於正子電腦斷層檢查意外發現肌肉生理性攝取增加需進一步找出原因避免錯誤的判讀。一名46歲男性甲狀腺癌病患(職業是農民,慣用手為右手),接受氟化去氧葡萄糖於正子電腦斷層分期檢查以進行治療評估及規劃。正子電腦斷層影像意外地顯示出在右側胸大肌,右側肩胛下肌和右側肱三頭肌有不對稱攝取增加。這些非預期之影像特徵(右胸和右上臂不對稱攝取增加),被認為可能是此位患者平日工作(職業是農民,慣用手為右手)所導致。

並列摘要


Positron emission tomography (PET) with fluorine-18-2-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-18 FDG) is a noninvasive diagnostic modality in various cancers. Unexpectedly increased physiologic muscle uptake may be encountered on F-18 FDG PET scans. A 46-year-old male farmer (right-handed user) with papillary thyroid cancer underwent F-18 FDG PET/CT scan for evaluation and following treatment planning. The PET/CT images unexpectedly showed asymmetrically increased uptake in right pectoralis major, right subscapular muscle, and right triceps brachii. These appearances of the imaging characteristics led to a manifestation of right chest and right upper arm result from heavy workload from his job.
