Abstract: A 70-year-old female was detected with multiple space-occupying liver lesions (SOLs) and left adrenal nodule in CT scan, while being evaluated for abdominal pain. PET/CECT showed multiple FDG-avid hypodense liver lesions (black arrows in images A-D in Figure 1) and low-grade FDG-avid adrenal nodule (white arrow in image E).
