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 images showed: Normal brain morphology and structure, with a few punctate low-density shadows in the deep cerebral regions bilaterally; FDG uptake was normal.
Some ventricles, sulci, fissures, and cisterns were widened, but local density and FDG uptake were normal; midline shift was not observed.
The bilateral eyeballs had normal morphology and outline; retrobulbar structures were clear; optic nerves were symmetrical bilaterally; FDG uptake was normal.
No thickening of the paranasal sinus mucosa was observed; sinus walls were intact.
No thickening of the nasopharyngeal wall was observed; FDG uptake was normal; bilateral pharyngeal recesses were symmetrical; Eustachian tube openings were not narrowed; the infratemporal and pterygopalatine fossae were structurally normal; bilateral parapharyngeal spaces were clear; FDG uptake was normal.
Bilateral palatine tonsils were full; FDG uptake was increased; SUVmax = 7.4.
The laryngopharynx had normal morphology and structure.
The thyroid gland is normal in shape and size.
A low-density nodule with a long diameter of approximately 1.8 cm is seen in the right lobe, with calcification at the edges and indistinct borders.
FDG uptake is normal.
Multiple lymph nodes are seen in the bilateral deep cervical spaces, submandibular region, and submental region, the largest being approximately 0.7 cm in short diameter.
Some have increased FDG uptake, with an SUVmax of 3.9.
The chest walls are symmetrical, and the lung markings are clear.
Multiple solid nodules are seen in the right upper lobe and left lung, the largest being approximately 0.6 cm in long diameter located in the anteromedial basal segment of the left lower lobe, with calcification within.
FDG uptake is normal.
Scattered linear shadows are seen in both lungs.
The trachea is midline, and the trachea and segmental bronchi are patent.
Multiple lymph nodes are seen in the bilateral hilum, posterior to the vena cava, aortic window, and subcarinal region, the largest being approximately 0.9 cm in short diameter.
Some have increased FDG uptake, with an SUVmax of 7.8.
No pleural thickening is seen bilaterally, and there is no pleural effusion or pneumothorax bilaterally.
The cardiac silhouette appeared normal.
Some arterial walls showed calcification (including the coronary arteries).
The esophagus showed no dilation, no significant thickening or mass in the wall, and no increased FDG uptake.
Both breasts were full and dense, with no abnormal density shadows, and no abnormal FDG uptake.
The liver showed no significant abnormalities in shape or size, with smooth borders and no widening of the hepatic fissure.
A low-density nodule with a long diameter of approximately 0.8 cm was observed in the left lobe of the liver, with clear borders and no abnormal FDG uptake.
The main portal vein showed no significant widening, and no dilation of intrahepatic or extrahepatic bile ducts.
The gallbladder showed no abnormalities in shape or size, with no thickening of the wall, no positive stones or significant masses, and no abnormal FDG uptake.
The pancreas showed no abnormalities in shape, with no significant abnormal density shadows in the parenchyma, no widening of the main pancreatic duct, and no abnormal FDG uptake.
The spleen showed no abnormalities in shape or size, density, or FDG uptake.
The kidneys appeared normal in shape and size, with small cystic lesions observed bilaterally, the largest being approximately 0.8 cm in length on the right side.
FDG uptake was not significantly abnormal.
The renal pelvis, calyces, and ureters were not widened, but high-density contrast agent residue was observed within them.
The adrenal glands appeared normal in shape and density, with no significant FDG uptake.
Gastric distension was poor, with no significant FDG uptake.
Bowel preparation was poor; a nodular FDG uptake with an SUVmax of 5.7 was observed in the lower rectum, with no obvious mass in the local intestinal wall; localized FDG uptake was observed in the remaining intestinal segment, with an SUVmax of 7.5.
A slightly low-density mass with indistinct borders was observed in the cervix, with increased FDG uptake (SUVmax = 14.9), measuring approximately 3.7*2.9*4.1 cm, involving the upper vagina, and fluid accumulation was observed in the uterine cavity.
A low-density nodule with a short diameter of approximately 0.4 cm was observed on the left pelvic wall, with increased FDG uptake (SUVmax = 6.4).
No abnormal density was observed in the bilateral adnexal regions, and FDG uptake was normal.
The bladder was poorly filled, with residual high-density contrast agent.
No significant fluid accumulation was observed in the abdomen or pelvis.
Decreased bone density was observed in multiple bones throughout the body.
Slight scoliosis was present, with Schmorl's nodes forming at the margins of the L2-4 vertebral bodies.
Osteophytes were present at the margins of some vertebral bodies, with L3/4 and L4/5 disc herniation and partial cervical, thoracic, and lumbar disc herniation.
Increased FDG uptake was observed in the soft tissues around both shoulder joints, with SUVmax = 4.3.

Impression

  1. a. A slightly low-density mass in the cervix with increased FDG metabolism, consistent with cervical cancer, involving the upper vagina and uterine cavity effusion; please confirm with MRI. b. Left pelvic wall lymph node metastasis is highly probable.

  2. Multiple chronic inflammatory nodules in both lungs; please follow up with CT. Bilateral pulmonary fibrosis. Reactive hyperplasia of hilar and mediastinal lymph nodes in both lungs. Partial arteriosclerosis (including coronary arteries). Bilateral breast hyperplasia.

  3. Cyst or hemangioma in the left lobe of the liver. Bilateral renal cysts.

  4. Nodular FDG hypermetabolic foci in the lower rectum, possibly due to inflammatory uptake; local space-occupying lesion to be ruled out; continuous FDG metabolism increase in the remaining intestinal segments, possibly due to physiological uptake or chronic inflammation; please confirm with endoscopy.

  5. Osteoporosis. Slight scoliosis with degenerative changes. Schmorl's nodes at the L2-4 vertebral margins. L3/4 and L4/5 intervertebral disc herniation; partial cervical, thoracic, and lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration with pneumoconiosis.

  6. Bilateral frozen shoulder. A low-density nodule with calcification in the right lobe of the thyroid gland; FDG metabolism was normal, suggesting possible nodular goiter. Ultrasound follow-up is recommended to rule out other possibilities. Bilateral reactive hyperplasia of cervical lymph nodes.

  7. A few lacunar ischemic foci in the deep brain regions of both sides, indicative of age-related brain disorders.

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.
