Abstract

In the usual scenario, vertebral hemangiomas do not demonstrate heightened uptake above background on fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (¹⁸F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scans. Here we presented a case of a positive ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT result indicating invasive vertebral hemangioma at the L2 vertebra, with atypical CT imaging features of heterogeneous increased density and multiple patchy density shadows. Our case underscores an additional uncommon aspect of invasive vertebral hemangioma imaging, warranting consideration in the differential diagnosis when encountering analogous findings on ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT.

期刊介绍： The Hellenic Journal of Nuclear Medicine published by the Hellenic Society of Nuclear Medicine in Thessaloniki, aims to contribute to research, to education and cover the scientific and professional interests of physicians, in the field of nuclear medicine and in medicine in general. The journal may publish papers of nuclear medicine and also papers that refer to related subjects as dosimetry, computer science, targeting of gene expression, radioimmunoassay, radiation protection, biology, cell trafficking, related historical brief reviews and other related subjects. Original papers are preferred. The journal may after special agreement publish supplements covering important subjects, dully reviewed and subscripted separately.
