Figure 8a — Pancreatic cancer with a peritoneal implant along the antrum of the stomach in a 52-year-old man. (a) Axial contrast-enhanced multidetector CT image shows a hypoattenuating invasive neoplastic lesion in the body of the pancreas (arrow) encasing the nearby mesenteric vessels (arrowhead). (b) Axial fused PET/CT image shows avid FDG uptake within the mass (arrow) and a focus of increased radiotracer uptake along the gastric wall (arrowhead) that was found to be a peritoneal implant. The implant was not seen at initial CT but increased in size at follow-up CT.
