Abstract
The preoperative diagnosis of uterine leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is very difficult. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is usually used for it; however, precise diagnosis by MR imaging is limited to typical LMS with coagulative tumor cell necrosis. We presented a case of LMS that was diagnosed preoperatively by positron emission tomography (PET) using 2-[(18)F] fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG).Entities:
