Abstract
INTRODUCTION: This study aims to disclose the frequency and clinical significance of incidental prostatic uptake during FDG PET imaging. METHODS: FDG PET images of 1839 male patients undergoing imaging for non-prostate and non-urinary bladder malignancy indications were retrospectively reviewed for the presence of incidental prostatic FDG uptake. Prostatic volume, calcification and the presence and pattern of FDG uptake were evaluated. Further follow-up prostatic evaluation results were comparatively assessed. RESULTS: Incidental prostatic FDG uptake was detected in 41 out of 1839 patients(2.2
