Popis: | A 76-year-old woman underwent 18F-florapronol (18F-FC119S, an amyloid β imaging PET agent) PET, owing to cognitive impairment. 18F-florapronol PET images revealed an incidental 18F-florapronol uptake in the right frontal lobe. A well-enhancing extra-axial mass in the right frontal lobe was observed on MRI scans, suggesting a meningioma. After excision of the tumor, the biopsy results confirmed it as a meningothelial meningioma. |
