Fig. 3From: Role of 18-FDG/PET in evaluation of hepatocellular carcinoma managed locally by transarterial chemoembolization compared to triphasic computed tomographyCase (2). Male patient had done two sessions of TACE. CECT showed no lipidole retention with central breakdown and marginal enhancement seen in the arterial phase (a) and wash out in portovenous and delayed phases (b, c), more in delayed one. PET scanning (d). The same managed lesion showed marginal significant FDG uptake in PET study (arrow ) with (SUV = 13). In the follow-up, the managed lesion showed activity. Also, PET-CT image (e) shows significant FDG increased uptake compared to the liver parenchymal uptakeBack to article page
