18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/ computed tomography imaging review of benign lesions of the thorax

2-deoxy-2-(Fluorine-18) fluoro-D-glucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) has been used exclusively to diagnose malignancies. However, increased18F-FDG uptake is not always limited to malignant lesions. This imaging review demonstrates the physiological18F-FDG upta...
