Incidentally detected grade 3 cystocele on FDG PET/CT in a case of suspected malignancy

Indian J Nucl Med. 2012 Oct;27(4):264-5. doi: 10.4103/0972-3919.115403.

Abstract

Unexpected findings are seen on FDG PET/CT outside the primary site of abnormality. Such incidental findings are common in the genitourinary tract due to normal urinary excretion of FDG. We report a case of incidentally detected grade 3 cystocele in a patient who underwent FDG PET/CT study for a suspected lung malignancy.

Keywords: 18 Fluoride FDG PET/CT; bladder uptake; cystocele.
