Abstract

Mycosis fungoides is the major form of primary cutaneous T cell lymphoma. Its staging is based on the percentage of body surface involvement and biopsy-proven extra cutaneous nodal or visceral involvement. Literature shows F-18 FDG accumulation in disease-involved nodes and viscera with non-specific uptake due to co-existing inflammation limits its specificity. We report an interesting case of mycosis fungoides with bilateral upper limb edema and share its findings on F-18 FDG PET/CT.

真菌样肉芽肿在F-18 FDG PET/CT分期中的有趣表现。

蕈样肉芽肿是原发性皮肤T细胞淋巴瘤的主要形式。其分期基于体表受累和活检证实的皮外淋巴结或内脏受累的百分比。文献显示，F-18 FDG在疾病相关的淋巴结和内脏中的积聚，由于共存的炎症而产生非特异性摄取，限制了其特异性。我们报告了一个有趣的蕈样肉芽肿伴双侧上肢水肿的病例，并分享了其在F-18 FDG PET/CT上的发现。

期刊介绍： Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (Nucl Med Mol Imaging) is an official journal of the Korean Society of Nuclear Medicine, which bimonthly publishes papers on February, April, June, August, October, and December about nuclear medicine and related sciences such as radiochemistry, radiopharmacy, dosimetry and pharmacokinetics / pharmacodynamics of radiopharmaceuticals, nuclear and molecular imaging analysis, nuclear and molecular imaging instrumentation, radiation biology and radionuclide therapy. The journal specially welcomes works of artificial intelligence applied to nuclear medicine. The journal will also welcome original works relating to molecular imaging research such as the development of molecular imaging probes, reporter imaging assays, imaging cell trafficking, imaging endo(exo)genous gene expression, and imaging signal transduction. Nucl Med Mol Imaging publishes the following types of papers: original articles, reviews, case reports, editorials, interesting images, and letters to the editor. The Korean Society of Nuclear Medicine (KSNM) KSNM is a scientific and professional organization founded in 1961 and a member of the Korean Academy of Medical Sciences of the Korean Medical Association which was established by The Medical Services Law. The aims of KSNM are the promotion of nuclear medicine and cooperation of each member. The business of KSNM includes holding academic meetings and symposia, the publication of journals and books, planning and research of promoting science and health, and training and qualification of nuclear medicine specialists.
