Whole-body 18F-FDG PET/CT scan in a patient with Prostate 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, and resting, 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.
The nasal septum was deviated, but the nasopharyngeal wall was not thickened, and FDG uptake was normal.
The pharyngeal recesses were symmetrical bilaterally, the Eustachian tube openings were not narrowed, the infratemporal and pterygopalatine fossae were structurally normal, and the bilateral parapharyngeal spaces were clear, with no abnormal FDG uptake.
The palatine tonsils showed physiological uptake.
No abnormal density shadows were observed in the bilateral parotid and submandibular glands.
The laryngopharynx morphology and structure were normal.
Thyroid gland is normal in shape and size, with slightly uneven density; FDG uptake is normal.
No enlarged lymph nodes were seen in the bilateral deep cervical spaces or submandibular region.
Multiple solid nodules were observed in both lungs, with clear borders; the largest was approximately 0.7 cm in diameter.
Some showed slightly increased FDG uptake (SUVmax = 1.3).
Multiple air-filled cavities were observed in both lungs, along with scattered linear lesions; FDG uptake was normal.
No pleural thickening was observed bilaterally, and there was no pleural effusion or pneumothorax.
Lymph nodes were visualized in the bilateral hilar, pretracheal, para-aortic arch, aortic window, and subcarinal regions; the largest had a short diameter of approximately 1.0 cm and increased FDG uptake (SUVmax = 3.1).
The cardiac silhouette was normal.
Some arterial walls showed calcification (including the coronary arteries).
The esophagus was not dilated; the esophageal wall showed no significant thickening or mass; FDG uptake was normal.
The liver showed no obvious abnormalities in shape and size, with smooth liver margins and no widening of the hepatic fissure.
A small cystic lesion, approximately 0.8 cm in diameter, was observed at the top of the diaphragm, with no abnormal FDG uptake.
The main portal vein showed no significant widening, and no dilation of intrahepatic or extrahepatic bile ducts was observed.
The gallbladder showed no abnormalities in shape and size, with no thickening of the gallbladder wall and no abnormal local FDG uptake.
The pancreas was normal in shape, with no obvious abnormal density shadows in the parenchyma, no widening of the main pancreatic duct, and no obvious abnormal FDG uptake.
The spleen showed no abnormalities in shape, size, density, or FDG uptake.
Both kidneys were normal in shape and size, with punctate dense shadows in the right renal calyx and a calcified lesion, approximately 0.5 cm in diameter, at the lower pole of the left kidney.
The renal pelvis, calyces, and ureter showed no widening, and no obvious abnormal FDG uptake was observed.
Bilateral adrenal gland imaging showed no obvious abnormalities.
Stomach distension is poor, with slight thickening of the antral wall and increased FDG uptake (SUVmax = 3.4).
Intestinal distension is unsatisfactory, with increased FDG uptake in some parts of the intestine (SUVmax = 5.1).
The prostate is enlarged, with a long diameter of approximately 5.3 cm, containing calcifications.
Increased density is observed in the peripheral zone of the prostate, particularly on the left side, measuring approximately 3.2 x 1.7 cm, with unevenly increased FDG uptake (SUVmax = 4.3).
Bilateral seminal vesicles are also involved.
Bilateral iliac lymph nodes are enlarged, the largest being located beside the right iliac vessel, measuring approximately 2.6 x 3.7 cm, with increased FDG uptake (SUVmax = 5.3).
Bladder distension is adequate, with no obvious positive stones observed.
The spinal alignment is normal, with osteophyte formation at the margins of some vertebral bodies, multiple bulging lumbar intervertebral discs, and pneumoconiosis and degeneration of the L5/S1 intervertebral disc.
The right clavicle cortex shows cortical distortion at the margins; FDG metabolism is normal.
Systemic bone marrow FDG metabolism is normal.

Impression

  1. Benign prostatic hyperplasia with calcification, prostatic mass with increased FDG metabolism, suggestive of possible prostate cancer invading bilateral seminal vesicles; please correlate with clinicopathology. Bilateral iliac lymph node metastasis.

  2. a. Multiple solid nodules in both lungs, with clear borders; some show slightly increased FDG metabolism, some suggest possible metastasis; follow-up CT scan recommended. b. Bilateral emphysema, scattered post-inflammatory lesions in both lungs. Reactive hyperplasia of hilar and mediastinal lymph nodes in both lungs. Calcification of some arterial walls (including coronary arteries).

  3. Small liver cysts. Right kidney stone, left kidney calcification.

  4. Highly probable chronic antral gastritis; chronic inflammatory changes in the intestines; please correlate with gastroscopy and colonoscopy.

  5. Degenerative changes in the spine, multiple bulging lumbar intervertebral discs, and pneumodiscosis of the L5/S1 intervertebral disc. Old fracture of the right clavicle.

  6. No obvious abnormalities were found on cranial scintigraphy.

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.
