Multimodality Imaging Evaluation of an Uncommon Entity: Esophageal Heterotopic Pancreas
Figure 6
(a) PET utilizing fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (F-18 FDG) axial fused CT image showing the increased FDG avidity associated with the paraesophageal mass (arrow). Images obtained on a Siemens Biograph PET CT 64 slice after administration of 12.31 mCi F-18 FDG. Total DLP 447 mGycm. (b) Coronal multiplanar reformatted fused PET CT image showing the FDG avid mass adjacent to the thoracic aorta (arrowhead). (c) Sagittal multiplanar reformatted fused PET CT image showing the FDG avid retrocardiac mass (curved arrow). (d) Maximal intensity projection (MIP) fused PET CT image showing the retrocardiac mass (black arrow).
