1 Diagnosis of renal and hepatic cyst infections by 18-F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease  Chantal P Bleeker-Rovers, MD, Ruud G.L.de Sévaux, MD, Henk W van Hamersvelt, MD, PhD, Frans H.M Corstens, MD, PhD, Wim J.G Oyen, MD, PhD  American Journal of Kidney Diseases  Volume 41, Issue 6, Pages e22.1-e22.4 (June 2003) DOI: /S (03) Copyright © Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Patient 1 with a history of ADPKD and renal transplantation presented with fever. Coronal (A) and transverse (B) projection of PET 2. The arrow indicates the large and irregular FDG uptake dorsally in the right kidney extending to the right liver lobe, suggesting infection.

3 Fig 2 Patient 3 with a history of ADPKD, hemodialysis, and bilateral nephrectomy presented with fever and abdominal discomfort. Coronal (A) and transverse (B) projection of PET 6. The arrow indicates the increased FDG uptake in the liver, suggesting hepatic cyst infection. Physiologic FDG uptake by the stomach is visible on the left side.
