Images of a 60-year-old female patient with adenocarcinoma. The primary tumor size measured on chest CT was 2.4 cm. a Transaxial PET/CT fusion image shows a hypermetabolic pulmonary nodule in the right upper lobe. The SUVmax, MTV and TLG of the primary tumor were 4.3, 3.5 cm3, and 9.9, respectively. b and c Transaxial PET/CT fusion image and maximum-intensity-projection image showing no significant FDG uptake suggestive of metastasis; however, right hilar lymph node metastasis was confirmed after surgery
