Effects on the FDG distribution by a high uptake of brown adipose tissue at PET examination

BACKGROUND: At fluorodeoxyglucose/positron emission tomography (FDG/PET) examinations, a generally increased uptake of the skeletal muscles is sometimes encountered. As the tracer distribution constitutes a ‘zero-sum-game’, the uptake of lesions as well as of normal tissues is reduced in these patie...
