AI Insight
⚡ TL;DR(Too Long; Didn't Read)

The FDG PET/CT scan showed that the diffuse linear FDG uptake in the spinal cord increased from L1 to L5.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:A 66-year-old male patient, who was followed up and treated due to the diagnosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, applied to the clinic due to complaints of severe neuropathic type pain in the right hip radiating to the leg for about 1 month and inability to walk even with support.
📊
Key Findings & Data:For suspicion of disease spread, the patient was planned to undergo an f-18 labeled fluorodeoxyglucose (F18 FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scan.
💡
Conclusion & Impact:The FDG PET/CT scan showed that the diffuse linear FDG uptake in the spinal cord increased from L1 to L5.

Abstract

A 66-year-old male patient, who was followed up and treated due to the diagnosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, applied to the clinic due to complaints of severe neuropathic type pain in the right hip radiating to the leg for about 1 month and inability to walk even with support. For suspicion of disease spread, the patient was planned to undergo an f-18 labeled fluorodeoxyglucose (F18 FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scan. The FDG PET/CT scan showed that the diffuse linear FDG uptake in the spinal cord increased from L1 to L5.
