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; no abnormal density shadows were seen in the brain parenchyma, and FDG metabolism was normal.
No widening was observed in the ventricles, sulci, fissures, or cisterns; local density and FDG uptake were normal; and there was no midline shift.
No obvious abnormalities were seen in the skull bone; and FDG uptake was not increased.
The bilateral eyeballs had normal morphology and contours; the retrobulbar structures were clear; the bilateral optic nerves were symmetrical; and FDG uptake was normal.
Mild thickening of the bilateral ethmoid sinuses and the right maxillary sinus mucosa was observed; the sinus walls were intact.
The nasal septum was slightly deviated; the bilateral turbinates were thickened; and FDG uptake was normal.
The nasopharyngeal wall was not thickened; FDG uptake was normal; the pharyngeal recesses were symmetrical; there was no stenosis of the Eustachian tube openings; and the infratemporal fossa and pterygopalatine fossa structures were normal; FDG uptake was normal.
Increased FDG uptake on both sides of the oropharyngeal wall, SUVmax=9.9.
No abnormalities were observed in the morphology and structure of the laryngopharynx.
The size, shape, and density of the bilateral submandibular and parotid glands were normal, with physiological FDG uptake.
The thyroid gland was normal in shape and size, with uniform density, and FDG uptake was normal.
Multiple small lymph nodes were observed in the bilateral deep cervical spaces and submandibular region, with no abnormal FDG uptake.
A solid miliary nodule was observed in the posterior basal segment of the right lower lobe, and a few scattered patchy and linear shadows were seen in both lungs, with no abnormal FDG uptake.
The pleura was thickened bilaterally, but there was no pleural effusion bilaterally, and FDG uptake was normal.
The trachea was midline, and the trachea and all lobar and segmental bronchi were patent, with no significant thickening of the tracheal walls or significant stenosis of the lumen.
No significantly enlarged lymph nodes were observed in the bilateral hilar and mediastinal regions, and FDG uptake was not significantly increased.
The cardiac silhouette was within the normal range.
The esophagus showed no dilation, and no increased FDG uptake was observed in the local esophageal wall.
Both breasts were full, with no abnormal density shadows, and no abnormal FDG uptake was observed.
The liver showed no obvious abnormalities in shape and size, with smooth liver margins and no widening of the hepatic fissure.
A patchy dense shadow, approximately 0.2 cm in diameter, was visible in the right anterior lobe of the liver; FDG metabolism was normal.
No dilation was observed in the intrahepatic or extrahepatic bile ducts.
The gallbladder showed no abnormalities in shape and size, with no thickening of the gallbladder wall, no positive stones or obvious masses, and no abnormal local FDG uptake.
The pancreas had a clear outline, normal shape and size, no obvious abnormal density shadows, no widening of the pancreatic duct, and no abnormal FDG uptake.
The spleen was generally normal in shape and size, with no abnormalities in density or FDG uptake.
Both kidneys are normal in shape and size, with no obvious abnormal density shadows in the renal parenchyma, and no obvious abnormalities in FDG uptake.
No widening of the renal pelvis, calyces, or ureters is observed, and no positive stones are seen in any area.
The bilateral adrenal glands are normal in shape, size, and density, and no abnormalities in local FDG uptake are observed.
The stomach is adequately filled, but the antral wall is thickened, and FDG uptake is increased (SUVmax = 3.5).
The intestines are not sufficiently filled; no thickening of the intestinal tract is observed, but FDG uptake is increased in some sections (SUVmax = 7.5).
A nodular soft tissue shadow with indistinct borders is seen next to the right anus, with increased FDG uptake (SUVmax = 5.5), and an uptake range of approximately 1.3*0.7cm.
Post-cervical cancer treatment: The uterus has shrunk in shape, and no abnormal density shadows are seen in the cervix; FDG uptake is normal.
No abnormalities are seen in the bilateral adnexa.
No enlarged lymph nodes were observed in the retroperitoneum or abdominopelvic region.
Multiple lymph nodes were observed in both inguinal regions, the largest with a short diameter of approximately 0.7 cm, showing increased FDG uptake (SUVmax = 2.5).
No effusion was observed in the abdominopelvic cavity.
The bladder was not distended, and no positive stones or obvious masses were observed locally.
The spinal alignment was normal, with osteophyte formation at the margins of some vertebral bodies and facet joints.
FDG uptake was decreased in some lumbar and sacral vertebrae (a change observed after radiotherapy).
Increased FDG uptake was observed in some muscles of both upper and lower limbs (SUVmax = 5.6), with effusion observed in both knee joints; no obvious space-occupying lesion was observed in the left knee joint.

Impression

  1. Uterine atrophy; no abnormal FDG metabolic foci seen in the cervix; previously enlarged lymph nodes in the left pelvic wall and retroperitoneum were not clearly visible this time. Considering the above, tumor activity has been largely suppressed after treatment; please consult a specialist and undergo enhanced MRI. Bilateral inguinal lymph node reactive hyperplasia.

  2. Bilateral knee joint effusion; no obvious space-occupying lesion seen in the left knee joint; please consult a specialist for follow-up.

  3. No significant abnormalities in intracranial FDG metabolism. Bilateral ethmoid sinusitis, right maxillary sinusitis, slight nasal septum deviation, bilateral turbinate hypertrophy. Chronic inflammation of the oropharynx. Bilateral chronic inflammatory small lymph nodes in the neck.

  4. Chronic miliary nodules in the posterior basal segment of the right lower lobe; chronic inflammation and remnants in both lungs.

  5. Bilateral pleural thickening. Bilateral breast proliferative changes; please follow up with a clinical specialist.

  6. Calcification in the right anterior lobe of the liver.

  7. Thickening of the gastric antrum wall with increased FDG metabolism; increased FDG metabolism in some intestinal segments, suggesting a high probability of chronic inflammatory changes; follow-up gastroscopy and colonoscopy are recommended.

  8. Nodular soft tissue density shadow on the right side of the anus with increased FDG metabolism, suggesting a high probability of inflammatory lesions; specialist examination is recommended.

  9. Degenerative changes in the spine.

  10. Tensile take-up in some muscles of both upper and lower limbs.

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.
