“Metabolic signature” of the lesions on F18-fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography: A clue to the underlying pathology

Increase in glycolytic pathway, forms one of the major adaptations in various cancer types. This can be imaged using (18)F-fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG PET). The intensity of FDG avidity is an indirect marker of the grade of the tumor. We present a case w...
