18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography images of the patient with dermatopathic lymphadenitis. (a) Maximum intensity projection positron emission tomography image shows extensive 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose-avid lymphadenopathy in bilateral cervical, supraclavicular, axillary, mediastinal, retroperitoneal, pelvic, and inguinal regions. (b-d) Transaxial positron emission tomography/computed tomography fusion images show enlarged cervical, axillary, and inguinal lymph nodes. The largest lymph node measures 24 mm × 12 mm in the right axilla, with maximum standardized uptake value of 12.2.
