Figure 1. (a) Non enhanced CT demonstrates small irregularity in right anterior abdominal wall. (b) Attenuation-corrected PET image demonstrates focus of increased uptake of 18F-FDG in corresponding site in abdominal wall. The additional focus of intra-abdominal uptake on the right is due to physiological uptake in the ureter. (c) Fused PET/CT image yields functional and anatomic information.
