B-mode (a–c) and strain ratio (d–f) images of a carcinoma of unknown type in the coronal (a, d), sagittal (b, e) and transverse (c, f) planes. In the strain images (d–f), the maximal principal strain ratios are superimposed on the B-mode images of the top row. The purple arrows indicate the lesion.

Fat-fluid levels sign: T1- and T2-weighted MRI shows cyst with thin septa, heterogeneous content, and fat-fluid levels, which is compatible with fat content, suggestive of galactocele. A cystic mass with a fat-fluid level is a diagnostic indicator of a galactocele, with the fat content above and the water content remaining at the bottom.
PET/CT shows impact of different COVID-19 vaccines
By Will Morton

December 18, 2023
A 73-year-old woman with a suspicious lung nodule was referred to our division for F-18 FDG PET/CT exam. She was vaccinated four days before PET/CT. The lung nodule did not show any pathological FDG uptake; however, high tracer activity was detected on her right arm, where she was injected, and multiple hypermetabolic lymph nodes in the right axilla (arrows). Moreover, PET/CT showed high tracer activity in the liver (black arrows), spleen (triangular arrows), and bone marrow (small triangular arrows) as the result of systemic immune response after vaccination. The tracer defect in the liver was due to the known cyst. (A) fusion scan, (B) PET, (C) maximum intensity projection. Image courtesy of Scientific Reports.
