F-18 Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography Metabolic Phenotype in Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody-Positive Autoimmune Epilepsy.

We describe the metabolic phenotype on F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET) in a 13-year-old female with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody-positive encephalitis. Unilateral hemispheric hypometabolism on PET may be the metabolic phenotype of autoimmune epilepsy associated with MOG antibody.

Elastofibroma Dorsi: Findings on 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography.

Elastofibroma dorsi (EFD) is a relatively rare soft-tissue pseudotumor that arises from mesenchymal tissue. We present a case of 48-year-old woman who underwent 18F fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography-computed tomography for initial staging of suspected carcinoma of the left breast. Incidental detection of soft-tissue masses showing moderate FDG uptake was seen in the bilateral infrascapular location characteristic of EFD.
