3 Figure 2 Fluorodeoxyglucose–position emission tomography (FDG–PET). Abnormal FDG uptake observed in a liver cyst in a dorsolateral segment of the left hepatic lobe (arrow). The maximum standardized uptake value was 3.7. FDG uptake was no longer observed in the follow-up FDG–PET (right upper inset).
