Abstract

A patient showing abnormal fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake due to disseminated Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) infection is presented. Increased focal FDG uptake was demonstrated in the cervical and supraclavicular lymph nodes, spleen, and diffuse bone marrow. FDG PET/CT is considered as a useful diagnostic tool to assess the exact extent and activity of disseminated MAC infection. Moreover, it is advantageous over CT and magnetic resonance imaging to assess the treatment response and time course of the disease.
