Concurrent FDG Avid Nasopharyngeal Lesion and Generalized Lymphadenopathy on PET-CT Imaging Is Indicative of Lymphoma in Patients with HIV Infection

<table>FDG PET-CT imaging of Patient 3.  A maximum intensity projection image (a) shows FDG avid lymphadenopathy in multiple sites including the retroperitoneum but more prominently in the axillae and groins. Axial CT and PET images of the upper neck (b) show a nasopharyngeal mass-like lesion with intense uptake (<svg height="14.7125" id="M4" style="vertical-align:-3.22282pt" version="1.1" viewbox="0 0 54.487499 14.7125" width="54.487499" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
