Long-lasting FDG uptake in the muscles after strenuous exercise.
FDG PET/CT imaging guidelines require avoiding exercise 24 hours before FDG administration. We report here a case of intense skeletal muscle FDG activity in a 15-year-old adolescent boy who had vigorous exercise 4 days before undertaking FDG PET/CT scan.
