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, and resting, a whole-body PET/CT scan was performed.
The whole-body scan showed: The brain morphology and structure were normal; no abnormal density shadows were seen in the brain parenchyma, and FDG uptake was not significantly abnormal.
The ventricles, sulci, fissures, and cisterns were not widened; the ventricles were symmetrical, and there was no midline shift.
The eyeballs were symmetrical, and no significant abnormalities were observed.
The paranasal sinuses showed no thickening of the mucosa, and the sinus walls were intact.
The nasopharyngeal wall showed no thickening, and FDG uptake was not abnormal.
The pharyngeal recesses were symmetrical, 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.
No abnormal density shadows were seen in the bilateral parotid and submandibular glands.
The base of the tongue and bilateral palatine tonsils were full with increased FDG uptake, SUVmax = 7.8.
The laryngopharynx morphology and structure were normal.
Thyroid gland is normal in shape and size, with uneven density and increased FDG uptake; SUVmax = 4.0.
No enlarged lymph nodes were seen in the bilateral deep cervical spaces or submandibular region.
Lung markings are clear bilaterally; several solid nodules with clear borders are present in both lungs, the largest being approximately 0.4 cm in diameter; no abnormal FDG uptake was observed.
A round, air-filled cavity was observed in the basal segment of the right lower lobe; a patchy area of increased density was observed in the lingular segment of the left upper lobe; a few linear foci were observed in both lungs; no abnormal FDG uptake was observed.
No pleural thickening was observed bilaterally; no pleural effusion or pneumothorax was observed bilaterally.
No significantly enlarged lymph nodes were seen in the bilateral hilar and mediastinal regions.
The cardiac silhouette is normal; the cardiac chamber density is lower than that of the myocardium; some arterial walls show calcification (including the coronary arteries).
No abnormal density shadows were seen in the bilateral breasts; FDG metabolism was normal.
No esophageal dilation, no obvious thickening or mass in the esophageal wall, and no increased FDG uptake.
No obvious abnormalities in liver shape and size, smooth liver margins, no widening of the hepatic fissure, a small cystic lesion approximately 0.9 cm in diameter under the capsule of the right posterior lobe of the liver, with no abnormal FDG uptake.
No obvious widening of the main portal vein, and no dilation of intrahepatic or extrahepatic bile ducts.
No abnormalities in gallbladder shape and size, thickened gallbladder wall, and no abnormalities in local FDG uptake.
Normal pancreas shape, no obvious abnormal density shadows in the parenchyma, no widening of the main pancreatic duct, and no obvious abnormalities in FDG uptake.
No abnormalities in spleen shape, size, density, or FDG uptake.
A dense nodule approximately 1.7*1.2 cm in size is present in the splenic hilum.
Both kidneys are normal in shape and size, with no obvious abnormal density shadows seen in the parenchyma.
The renal pelvis, calyces, and ureters are not widened, and FDG uptake is not significantly abnormal.
Bilateral adrenal gland imaging shows no obvious abnormalities.
The stomach is poorly filled, with slight thickening of the antral wall and mildly increased FDG uptake (SUVmax = 2.5).
The intestines are not satisfactorily filled, but no obvious space-occupying lesions are seen; FDG uptake is physiological.
The bladder is adequately filled, and no obvious positive stones are seen within it.
The cervix is full, with a visible soft tissue density mass with indistinct borders and calcifications.
FDG uptake is increased (SUVmax = 16.8), with the largest uptake cross-section measuring approximately 6.4*3.4cm, affecting the lower part of the uterine body.
Multiple thickenings with increased FDG uptake are seen in the endometrial area (SUVmax = 6.0).
There is uterine cavity effusion, and several metallic density shadows are visible within the uterine cavity.
The uterus is enlarged, and slightly high-density nodules are seen in the myometrium, the largest measuring approximately 2.2*1.7cm.
FDG metabolism is normal.
Multiple lymph nodes are visible in the bilateral pelvic walls, bilateral iliac vessels, and retroperitoneum, the largest being located beside the left iliac vessel, measuring approximately 2.1*1.8cm, with increased FDG uptake (SUVmax = 8.1).
The spinal alignment is normal, with osteophyte formation at the margins of some vertebral bodies and multiple lumbar disc bulges.
Subcutaneous calcifications are present in the right buttock.
No abnormalities were found in FDG metabolism throughout the bone marrow.

Impression

  1. a. Cervical mass with elevated FDG metabolism, consistent with cervical cancer, involving the lower part of the uterine body; multiple lymph node metastases in the bilateral pelvic walls, bilateral iliac vessels, and retroperitoneum. b. Uterine cavity effusion, indwelling IUD. Uterine fibroids.

  2. Chronic inflammatory micronodules in both lungs; CT follow-up is recommended. Segmental atelectasis in the left upper lobe, and a pneumocystic cavity in the right lower lobe. A few fibrotic lesions in both lungs. Anemic changes, calcification of some arterial walls (including coronary arteries).

  3. Small cyst in the right lobe of the liver. Chronic cholecystitis. Calcified nodules in the splenic hilum.

  4. Chronic inflammatory changes in the antrum of the stomach; please follow up with endoscopy.

  5. Degenerative changes in the spine, multiple lumbar disc herniations. Subcutaneous calcification in the right buttock.

  6. Uneven thyroid density with elevated FDG metabolism suggests inflammation; please follow up with ultrasound and thyroid function tests.

  7. Cranial scintigraphy showed no obvious abnormalities. Inflammation is present at the base of the tongue and bilateral palatine tonsils.

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.
