ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To analyze the imaging features of (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose (¹⁸F-FDG) positron emission tomography(PET)/computed tomography (CT) in acquired immune deficiency syndrome-related lymphoma (ARL) patients correlated with their clinical signs, symptoms, and treatments.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Five ARL patients underwent ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from October 2008 to January 2013. Two patients received two additional follow-up studies 6 months later.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Among these 5 patients, ¹⁸FDG-PET/CT helped in diagnosis of two patient and changed therapeutic strategy in other two patients. In two patients underwent ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT brain scans, low-metabolism lesion was newly found in cerebral cortex. Of 4 patients receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy, PET/CT also demonstrated diffusely elevated ¹⁸F-FDG uptake in subcutaneous adipose tissue in two patients.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT is a highly useful tool in the diagnosis and treatment of ARL patients, in particular in the identification of associated encephalopathy and lipodystrophy.</p>
