Whole-body 18F-FDG PET/CT scan in a patient with Cervical Cancer taken from the PETWB-REP dataset. The following English report (translated from original Chinese) is taken verbatim from the public dataset and has not been modified or otherwise checked for accuracy (see the end for citation).

Findings

After fasting and intravenous injection of 18F-FDG, a whole-body PET/CT scan was performed.
The whole-body scan showed: The brain morphology and structure were normal, with no abnormal density shadows in the brain parenchyma, and no significant abnormalities in FDG uptake.
No widening of the ventricles, sulci, fissures, or cisterns was observed; the ventricles were symmetrical, and there was no midline shift.
The eyeballs were symmetrical bilaterally, with no significant abnormalities.
No thickening of the paranasal sinus mucosa was observed, and the sinus walls were intact.
Thickening of the left nasopharyngeal wall was observed with increased FDG uptake (SUVmax = 4.5).
The pharyngeal recesses were symmetrical bilaterally, and there was no stenosis of the Eustachian tube openings.
The infratemporal and pterygopalatine fossae were structurally normal, and the parapharyngeal spaces were clear bilaterally with no abnormal FDG uptake.
The palatine tonsils showed physiological uptake bilaterally.
No abnormal density shadows were observed in the bilateral parotid and submandibular glands.
The laryngopharynx morphology and structure were normal.
The thyroid gland is normal in shape and size, with uneven density.
A low-density nodule measuring approximately 2.4*1.6cm is present in the right lobe, with no abnormal FDG uptake.
Multiple lymph nodes are visible in the bilateral deep cervical spaces and submandibular region.
The largest is located in the left deep cervical space, with a short diameter of approximately 0.8cm.
FDG uptake is increased, with SUVmax=5.6.
Both lungs have clear lung markings.
An irregular mixed ground-glass opacity is present in the posterior segment of the left lower lobe, with indistinct borders and spiculated edges.
It partially tractions the adjacent pleura, measuring approximately 2.8*2.2*2.0cm, with uneven density.
FDG uptake is increased, with SUVmax=6.2.
A bronchus is seen penetrating within the lesion, with localized stenosis and truncation.
Multiple small solid nodules, approximately 0.2-0.3cm in diameter, are present in the remaining lungs, with no abnormal FDG uptake.
A few linear lesions are also present in both lungs, with no abnormal FDG uptake.
Left pleural thickening, no pleural effusion or pneumothorax bilaterally.
No significantly enlarged lymph nodes in the bilateral hilar and mediastinal regions.
Cardiac appearance normal, cardiac chamber density lower than myocardial density.
Partial arteriosclerosis.
No abnormal density shadows in bilateral breasts, FDG metabolism normal.
No esophageal dilation, no significant thickening or mass in the esophageal wall, no increased FDG uptake.
No significant abnormalities in liver shape and size, smooth liver margins, no widening of the hepatic fissure, no significant abnormal density shadows in the liver parenchyma on plain CT scan, no abnormal FDG uptake.
No significant widening of the main portal vein, no dilation of intrahepatic or extrahepatic bile ducts.
No abnormalities in gallbladder shape and size, no thickening of the gallbladder wall, no abnormal local FDG uptake.
The pancreas is normal in shape, with no obvious abnormal density shadows in the parenchyma.
The main pancreatic duct is not widened, and FDG uptake is not significantly abnormal.
The spleen is normal in shape, size, density, and FDG uptake.
Both kidneys are normal in shape and size, with no obvious abnormal density shadows in the parenchyma.
The renal pelvis, calyces, and ureters are not widened, and FDG uptake is not significantly abnormal.
Bilateral adrenal glands show no significant abnormalities on contrast imaging.
The stomach is poorly filled, with slight thickening of the antral wall and increased FDG uptake (SUVmax = 3.9).
The intestines are poorly filled, with continuous increased FDG uptake in the sigmoid colon and rectum (SUVmax = 4.5).
The cervix is full, with a visible soft tissue density lesion of approximately 3.3*2.7*2.8cm in size, its borders indistinct, involving the upper vagina.
FDG uptake is increased, SUVmax=11.0.
The uterine margins are not smooth.
A soft tissue density shadow with calcifications of approximately 2.2*1.9cm is seen on the right wall.
FDG metabolism is normal.
Small lymph nodes are visible in the retroperitoneum, bilateral iliac vessels, and inguinal region, the largest with a short diameter of approximately 0.7cm.
FDG uptake is normal.
No obvious abnormalities are seen in the bilateral adnexa.
The bladder is poorly filled, with no obvious positive stones.
The spinal alignment is normal, with osteophyte formation at the margins of some vertebral bodies and L4/5 and L5/S1 intervertebral disc bulges.
Subcutaneous calcifications are present in the left buttock.
Systemic bone marrow FDG metabolism is normal.

Impression

  1. a. Cervical mass with increased FDG metabolism, consistent with cervical cancer. b. Reactive hyperplasia of small lymph nodes in the retroperitoneum, bilateral iliac vessels, and groin. Uterine fibroids with calcification.

  2. a. Irregular mixed ground-glass opacity in the posterior segment of the left lower lobe with increased FDG metabolism, highly suggestive of lung cancer; please confirm with pathology. b. Chronic inflammatory micronodules in the remaining lungs. A few post-inflammatory remnants in both lungs. Partial thickening of the left pleura. Anemia changes, partial arteriosclerosis.

  3. Chronic inflammatory changes in the antrum of the stomach and part of the intestine; please confirm with endoscopic follow-up.

  4. Degenerative changes in the spine, L4/5 and L5/S1 intervertebral disc bulges. Subcutaneous calcification in the left buttock.

  5. Low-density nodule in the right lobe of the thyroid gland; FDG metabolism normal; suggestive of nodular goiter with cystic degeneration; follow-up ultrasound recommended.

  6. Cranial scintigraphy showed no obvious abnormalities. Inflammation of the left lateral nasopharyngeal wall. Bilateral chronic inflammatory lymph nodes in the neck.

This case is from PETWB-REP, a curated dataset of whole-body 18F-FDG PET/CT scans and corresponding radiology reports from 490 patients with a broad spectrum of malignancies. The data were retrospectively collected from patients who underwent clinically indicated whole-body 18F-FDG PET/CT scans at the Shanghai Universal Medical Imaging Diagnostic Center between 2021 and 2024.
