Brown adipose activation and reversible beige coloration in adipose tissue with multiple accumulations of (18)F‐fluorodeoxyglucose in sporadic paraganglioma: A case report

In pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma, nontumorous high (18)F‐fluorodeoxyglucose accumulations are observed in both beige and brown adipose tissues. Recognizing this feature of (18)F‐fluorodeoxyglucose accumulation can help physicians make precise diagnoses and help them avoid the pitfalls of a false‐po...

Descripción
Sumario:In pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma, nontumorous high (18)F‐fluorodeoxyglucose accumulations are observed in both beige and brown adipose tissues. Recognizing this feature of (18)F‐fluorodeoxyglucose accumulation can help physicians make precise diagnoses and help them avoid the pitfalls of a false‐positive (18)F‐fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography result, preventing unnecessary interventions.
