Abstract
FDG PET/CT is a useful modality to detect recurred lesions of many malignancies. Because a lot of FDG is excreted through urinary system, FDG PET/CT is limited especially in the cases of pelvic cavity. To overcome these restrictions diuretic or dualtime- point FDG PET/CT has been introduced and improved the specificity and sensitivity. Herein this report presents falsepositive findings of diuretic and dual-time-point FDG PET/CT which mimicked a recurrence of sigmoid colon cancer due to an ureterovesical junction stricture.
Key Words: UVJ stricture, Diuretic, Dual-time-point, FDG, PET/CT, False-positive
