Physiologic (18)F‐FDG muscle uptake in severe COPD: Implications for accurate lung cancer staging

Recognizing physiologic (18)F‐fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake in severe COPD is crucial to avoid mistaking it for lung cancer metastasis. Correlating (18)F‐FDG avid lesions with co‐registered computed tomography is essential for accurate lung cancer staging and preventing unnecessary interventions....

Sumario:Recognizing physiologic (18)F‐fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake in severe COPD is crucial to avoid mistaking it for lung cancer metastasis. Correlating (18)F‐FDG avid lesions with co‐registered computed tomography is essential for accurate lung cancer staging and preventing unnecessary interventions.
