Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The number of diagnostic positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) procedures performed in the USA and worldwide is rapidly increasing. Although the benefits of these procedures are obvious, the increasing use of radiopharmaceuticals requires a better understanding of potential adverse affects and their proper management. We present herein the first report of an allergic reaction to fluorodeoxyglucose in the setting of repeated PET/CT scans for restaging purposes in a patient with pyriform sinus cancer.
