Popis: Key message Recognizing physiologic 18F‐fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake in severe COPD is crucial to avoid mistaking it for lung cancer metastasis. Correlating 18F‐FDG avid lesions with co‐registered computed tomography is essential for accurate lung cancer staging and preventing unnecessary interventions.
