title: Chest wall and axillary lymph node FDG uptake associated with cancer vaccine therapy for lung cancer.
abstract: Cancer vaccines are now undergoing clinical investigations, and clinical trials of therapeutic cancer vaccines have been conducted mainly for advanced cancer patients. We experienced 2 cases of multifocal F-18 fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose uptake in the chest wall and axillary lymph nodes associated with personalized peptide vaccine therapy for recurrent lung cancer. In this article, we report fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose -positron emission tomography and positron emission tomography/computed tomography findings.
