Abstract
We compared 18 F-FAPI and 18 F-FDG PET/CT findings of metastatic perivacular epitheliod cell tumor in a 23-year-old woman. Apart from showing strong uptake of a left upper lung mass that showed moderate uptake on 18 F-FDG, 18 F-FAPI PET/CT additionally presented hypermetabolism in diffuse multifocal lesion throughout the body. This case suggests that 18 F-FAPI PET/CT might play a more beneficial role than 18 F-FDG PET/CT in identifying and assessing the extent of perivascular epithelioid cell tumors.
