Abstract

Abstract We present dynamic 18F-FDG PET/CT acquisition in a 52-year-old old woman with histologically proven hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (AE). Metabolic rate of FDG images generated with traditional and relative Patlak analysis show the AE manifestation in the liver significantly better the static SUV images. Dynamic PET may thus have the potential to increase sensitivity in the assessment of hepatic AE manifestations. Such parametric images may offer complementary qualitative information and quantification superior to SUV images.
