¹⁸F‐Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)‐PET features of focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) of the liver

Abstract

In contrast to liver metastases, there is no increased glucose metabolism in FNH in vivo. The imaging feature of FNH by 18F-FDG-PET imaging is not specific for FNH; however, it may be helpful to differentiate FNH from liver metastases in cancer patients if radiological methods are not diagnostic.
