BACKGROUND: Interpretation of cardiac uptake on 18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emissiontomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) is often confounded by intensephysiological FDG uptake and numerous benign conditions. The aim of the study was todescribe the echocardiographic features in concordance with cardiac and pericardial 18F-FDGuptake on whole-body oncology PET/CT. METHODS: We enrolled 43 consecutive patients (34 solid tumors, 8 lymphomas and 1leukemia) who were newly diagnosed with non-cardiac malignancy showing incidentalcardiac or pericardial 18F-FDG uptake on PET/CT and underwent transthoracic Dopplerechocardiography (TTE) within 1 month of PET/CT. The maximum standardized uptake(SUVmax) of all lesions was measured. RESULTS: Fifty-six 18F-FDG uptake lesions (32 pericardium, 7 myocardium, 9 cardiacchambers and 8 great vessels) were found, and pericardial effusion was the most commonechocardiographic finding (22/43, 51.2%) among study population. Pericardial FDG uptakewas shown as pericardial effusion (68.8%), intrapericardial echogenic materials (31.3%),pericardial thickening (28.1%), hyperechogenicity of myopericardium (18.8%), and restrictedsliding movement or constrictive pericarditis (15.6%) on TTE. Lesions with regional wallmotion abnormality (p = 0.004) or constrictive pericarditis (p = 0.021) had significantlyhigher mean SUVmax than those without. Myocardial FDG uptake demonstrated pericardialeffusion (57.1%), regional wall motion abnormality (57.1%), and increased myocardial wallthickness (42.9%). All cardiac chamber FDG uptakes showed intracardiac mass on TTE. CONCLUSIONS: Cardiac or pericardial 18F-FDG uptake on oncology PET/CT showscharacteristic echocardiographic features according to which heart sites are involved.
