Hypermetabolic Hurthle Cell Adenoma on 18F FDG PET-CT scanAamna Hassan, Saima RiazShaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research CenterThyroid incidentalomas are frequently discovered on 18F FDG PET-CT scan. A higher malignancy risk is thought to be associated with increasing metabolic activity and standardized uptake value (SUV). Likewise, thyroid nodules with focal FDG avidity have higher a malignant potential. However, some benign nodules like follicular and Hurthle cell adenomas can also present with focal hypermetabolic activity. Aamna Hassan, Saima Riaz.
