Abstract
A 51-year-old woman with breast cancer underwent a complete surgical resection and chemoradiotherapy approximately 3 months ago. Follow-up abdominal ultrasound detected a new lesion with decreased echogenicity in the hepatic segment IV/VIII. 18F-FDG PET/CT showed the hepatic lesion without abnormal uptake. The patient was subsequently enrolled in a clinical trial of 18F-FAPI PET/CT to assess the hepatic lesion. An intense 18F-FAPI activity was identified in the hepatic lesion. Finally, pathological analysis combined with imaging follow-up confirmed the diagnosis of radiation-induced liver injury.
