Female, 82 years old, with chest pain and right chest mass, assess for neck involvement. A large right chest wall mass is redemonstrated. The inferior extent of this lesion is not included in the field of view of this exam, but superiorly, infiltrative tumor extends into the supraclavicular fossa and along the right paraspinal soft tissues to the C4 level.This mass encases the first and second right ribs, both of which show evidence of lytic destruction. Mild lytic destruction of the right C7 transverse process is also suspected. Tumor invades both the right C6-7 and C7-T1 neural foramina but without significant extension into the spinal canal itself.The right subclavian vein drapes over the anterior margin of the mass. However, the right subclavian artery is encased and perhaps mildly narrowed by the tumor. The right common carotid artery runs along the anterior margin of the mass but is neither encased nor compressed. The V1 segment of the right vertebral artery does not opacify well and may be compressed or encased by tumor. Upon entering the foramen transversarium at C5, the vessel seems to enhance normally.The thyroid is expanded by numerous heterogeneous predominantly hypoattenuating nodules which measure up to 30 mm in diameter. Two of the larger nodules demonstrate CT attenuation and morphology which is similar to the adjacent chest wall mass. The airway is mildly deformed by the thickened thyroid gland but is not severely compromised.Axillary lymph nodes are better assessed on chest imaging. Elsewhere in the neck, no pathologic adenopathy is detected by size criteria. The salivary glands are unremarkable. The aerodigestive mucosa is free of focal lesions.
Large right-sided chest wall mass with extension superiorly into the supraclavicular fossa and along the right lateral paraspinal soft tissues to the level of C4. The mass results in lytic destruction of the first two ribs on the right as well as the right C7 transverse process. Tumor invades the right C6-7 and C7-T1 neural foramina without significant encroachment upon the spinal canal itself.The right subclavian vein is encased and mildly narrowed by tumor in the supraclavicular fossa. The first segment of the right vertebral artery is not well seen and may also be involved by tumor.No pathologic adenopathy is detected more superiorly in the neck. However, the thyroid gland is diffusely thickened by the presence of numerous heterogeneous hypoattenuating nodules, some of which bear resemblance to the chest wall mass which would suggest that they are part of the same process.

47-year-old female with neurofibromatosis type I with right inguinal neurofibroma causing increased pain. Please compare to previous PET regarding right femoral/inguinal neurofibroma.RADIOPHARMACEUTICAL: 12.7 mCi F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG).BLOOD GLUCOSE (FASTING): 89 mg/dL. Today's CT portion grossly demonstrates innumerable cutaneous soft tissue lesions in the neck, chest, abdomen, and pelvis which are not significantly changed. A right midthoracic paraspinal lesion is identified. A left lateral pleural based lesion is visualized. Masslike enlargement of the left psoas is seen. Right inguinal soft tissue mass is visualized. Lobular masslike enlargement around the uterus is noted. Patient is status post amputation at the level of the left proximal femur. Today's PET examination redemonstrates a small intensely hypermetabolic lesion in the right posterior thyroid lobe with maximal SUV of 16.3 (previous maximal SUV 13.6). In addition, there is a small mild to moderately hypermetabolic lesion in the inferior pole of the left thyroid lobe with maximal SUV of 5.4. The thyroid lesions are stable in size with increase in FDG activity and likely represent primary thyroid nodules which may be benign or malignant in nature.Again seen is a right midthoracic paraspinal lesion with mild to moderate FDG activity and maximal SUV of 4.7 (previous maximal SUV 2.6) and appears similar to previous study.In the left psoas muscle, there is mild to moderate hypermetabolic activity with maximal SUV of 4.2 which is slightly increased from previous study maximal SUV of 2.8.Within the pelvis, there is a medium-sized markedly hypermetabolic right inguinal lesion which has somewhat increased both in size and activity. Maximal SUV is now 16.4 (previous maximal SUV of 11.9).Additional hypermetabolic pelvic lesions which are left of the midline including and surrounding the uterus continue to be present. These lesions have areas of mild to markedly increased uptake, although overall, they are decreased in size and activity compared to prior study.Reidentified are numerous similar cutaneous lesions with mild activity.Physiologic activity is seen in the liver, spleen, kidneys, intestines, and bladder.
1.Multiple hypermetabolic soft tissue masses in the chest, abdomen, and pelvis consistent with neurofibromatosis. The most metabolically active lesions are present within the pelvis and may represent malignant nerve sheath tumors. The lesion in the right inguinal region has progressed in size and FDG avidity. The left pelvic lesions have slightly improved. 2.Bilateral hypermetabolic thyroid nodules which could represent benign thyroid nodules, thyroid cancer, or additional nerve sheath tumors.

Female 50 years old Reason: h/o liver microabscesses on antibiotic therapy from previous CT. Pleas eval if resolved. History: h/o liver microabscesses ABDOMEN:LUNG BASES: No significant abnormality notedLIVER, BILIARY TRACT: There are two classes of lesions in the liver: Most lesions are simple hypodense lesions most of which are unchanged from the prior exam and could represent cysts or healed abscesses and it least one of these lesions in segment 7, series 3 image 28, measures slightly larger, 1.4 x 1 cm.It least one lesion has (and had) peripheral nodular enhancement and is nearly isodense with liver likely representing an hemangioma, located in the medial segment of the left lobe (probably Series III image 26) but is seen better on the prior exam Series #3, image #17.Some of the other small hypodense lesions for example those along the subcapsular aspect of the left lobe near the dome are no longer visible. These could represent healed abscesses or hemangiomas that are now isodense with liver in this phase.There are no new lesions.Hepatic and portal veins enhance normally. No biliary dilatation. No perihepatic fluid or fat stranding. Small granuloma unchanged.SPLEEN: No significant abnormality notedPANCREAS: No significant abnormality notedADRENAL GLANDS: No significant abnormality notedKIDNEYS, URETERS: No significant abnormality notedRETROPERITONEUM, LYMPH NODES: No significant abnormality noted.BOWEL, MESENTERY: Previously seen colonic wall thickening is markedly diminished and the pericolonic fat stranding is resolved.

Counting convention assumes 12 rib bearing vertebrae, with no evidence of cervical ribs or hypoplastic L1 ribs. The last fully formed disk space on the sagittal reformatted images is designated as L1-L2. Please this is different than the prior counting convention.There is slight increased conspicuity of trace grade 1 anterolisthesis of T2 on T3. The scout lateral view and the sagittal reformatted images demonstrate the thoracic spine to be otherwise in normal alignment, with a normal thoracic kyphosis. The vertebral body and disk space heights are well-maintained. Dorsal osteophytes are again noted at T9-T10. There is no acute fracture. There is redemonstration of a spinal cord stimulator which enters through the bony central spinal canal at the T11-T12 level, unchanged in position to the prior exam. There is slight widening of the interlaminar space at this level. There is no discontinuity of the electrodes. A battery pack is out of the field of view.The axial images do not demonstrate any significant disk bulge, disk herniation, significant bony spinal canal or foraminal stenosis.Limited views through the retroperitoneum demonstrate no gross abnormalities. Surgical clips are seen within the gallbladder fossa which likely relate to previous cholecystectomy. Scattered blebs are noted.
Stable appearance of the thoracic spine with evidence of spinal cord stimulator entering the bony central spinal canal at the T11-T12 level. Please note that the current counting convention is different from that utilized on the prior exam, with the current counting assuming 12 rib bearing vertebrae.

Dementia. Evaluate for Alzheimer's versus frontotemporal dementia.RADIOPHARMACEUTICAL: 10.0 mCi F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)BLOOD GLUCOSE (FASTING): 86 mg/dL Today's CT portion grossly demonstrates fairly generalized atrophy but no evidence of intracranial mass or hemorrhage.Today's PET portion demonstrates markedly decreased radiotracer activity involving the right posterior parietal as well as throughout the right occipital lobe. There is also markedly decreased activity throughout the right precuneus. Significantly milder but still abnormally decreased activity is seen involving the left posterior parietal, left occipital, and left precuneus.There is relative sparing of the frontal lobes as well as the temporal lobes bilaterally.
Significant hypometabolism involving the right posterior cerebrum as detailed above with much milder decreases in similar regions on the left. Given the posterior parietal and precuneal involvement, Alzheimer's is a possibility. However, given the substantial occipital abnormalities, Lewy body dementia should also be considered. The appearance is not typical for frontotemporal dementia.
