White fat, factitious hyperglycemia, and the role of FDG PET to enhance understanding of adipocyte metabolism

The development of a hybrid PET/CT led to the recognition of the enhanced glycolysis in brown fat. We report a previously unrecognized mechanism for altered fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) biodistribution with diffuse white adipose tissue uptake. This occurred during a restaging scan for cervical cancer fo...
