Generalized Large Vessel Arteritis Determined by F-18 FDG PET/CT In A Patient With Lung Mass

Abstract

Seventy-seven years old male patient with diagnosis of mass like lesion at the apex of the left lung lobe was subjected to the F-18 FDG PET/CT for diagnostic purposes. The imaging results showed hypermetabolic mass lesion and additional nodule in the left lung and incidentally found generalized arteritis involving aorta, common iliac and left femoral branches.
