Popis:	Gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma on esophagogastroduodenoscopy biopsy. Initial PET-CT showed no definite evidence of distant metastatic disease. One month after radiation treatment, repeat PET-CT showed interval decrease in size of gastroesophageal mass but new multifocal FDG avidity in the caudate and left hepatic lobes. Correlation with contrast-enhanced CT and US images was negative, making metastasis less likely. Ultrasound-guided biopsy confirmed radiation-induced hepatitis, which caused false positively increased FDG uptake from inflammatory changes.
