Clin Nucl Med. 2023 Apr 1;48(4):373-375. doi: 10.1097/RLU.0000000000004579. Epub 2023 Jan 31.

Abstract

18 F-FDG PET/CT has been reported to be useful in differentiating tumor thrombus and bland thrombus. There are few reports on 68 Ga-FAPI PET imaging features of tumor thrombus. Herein, we report a 46-year-old man with extensive tumor thrombus in the portal vein due to hepatic malignancy on 18 F-FDG PET/CT and 68 Ga-FAPI PET/MRI.
