Image c delayed post-diuretic PET CT revealed clearly differentiated lesion avidity from the surrounding urine activity [SUV max 22.08]. d MIP delayed PET image with increased threshold revealed the bladder lesion and three regional RT external, internal and common iliac LNs confirmed in the fused PET CT pelvic image (e), the largest and most active one measures 15.4 × 14 mm seen in the external iliac group achieving 16.02 SUV max. f Fused axial chest PET CT image revealed another small mildly avid right hilar LN achieving 4.4 SUV
