A 56-year-old female presented with right breast swelling. Sonomammography (A and B) revealed right breast diffuse edema pattern and skin thickening yet with no definite masses, lymph node biopsy proved adenocarcinoma of breast origin warranting further assessment. PEM (C and D) revealed right breast diffuse skin and nipple/areola complex FDG activity with PUV max = 2.5 & lesion to back ground (LTB) = 4.8. Right breast deeply seated mass with avid FDG uptake, PUV = 1.8 and LTB = 3.3 is noted. Histopathology proved ILC
