Figure 1 Coronal PET image demonstrating abnormal FDG uptake (A) and coronal CT image showing a large lesion occupying the same areas (B).
Figure 2 Coronal PET image demonstrating a significant metabolic response to imatinib treatment (A) and coronal CT image showing a large lesion (B).
There was no difference in dimensions before and after imatinib treatment although metabolic activity was inhibited.
