| Abstrakt: |
Evaluation of the urinary bladder on PET with F-FDG is hampered by accumulation of activity in the urinary bladder due to physiological excretion of F-FDG in urine. We present 2 examples that demonstrate the utility of delayed scanning in lateral recumbent or prone position to improve evaluation of the bladder by differentiating between active bladder wall lesions and intraluminal activity. Changing the body position from a supine to a lateral recumbent or prone position can result in migration of intraluminal activity due to gravitational force, whereas F-FDG uptake in bladder wall lesions will show no migration. |
