Figure 5 Axial section positron emission-computed tomography (PET-CT) demonstrates a small focus of mildly increased fluorodeoxyglucose uptake in the pancreatic body, with a maximum standardized uptake value of 2.3 (yellow crosshairs). The lesion shows no associated mass effect or surrounding inflammatory changes on the CT component. No additional hypermetabolic foci were identified in the pancreas or surrounding lymphatic chains.
