Coronal fused FDG-PET/CT image (a) of a patient with nodular sclerosis type Hodgkin’s lymphoma prechemotherapy demonstrating an FDG-avid lymph node mass in the superior mediastinum (white arrowhead) and hypermetabolic bilateral axillary lymphadenopathy (white arrows). Interim staging coronal fused FDG-PET/CT image (b) in the same patient after 3 cycles of chemotherapy demonstrating a significant interval decrease in both the degree of FDG uptake and the size of the lymph node mass in the superior mediastinum (white arrow) with resolution of the axillary lymphadenopathy.
