New axillary lymph nodal F-18 fluoro-deoxy glucose uptake in an interim positron emission tomography scan – not always a sign of disease progression

Fluoro-deoxy glucose (FDG) is a non-specific tracer and may accumulate in non-malignant conditions causing potential pitfalls leading to false-positive interpretations of interim positron emission tomography scan.
