Abstract:
We present a case of NUT midline carcinoma (NMC) mimicking lymphoma in an adolescent boy, with attention to multidetector CT appearance and pattern of metastasis on [F-18]2-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET/CT). Few case reports have focused on the imaging characteristics of this rare tumor in the pediatric imaging literature. A newly described but increasingly recognized disease entity, NMC should enter the differential of pediatric midline tumors displaying particularly aggressive characteristics on imaging.

Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan
Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...

Radiological Investigation II: MRI and Ventilation Perfusion Scan
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ventilation Perfusion Scans are two radiological investigations that offer detailed diagnostic images of the body, particularly lung structures.
MRI
MRI uses magnetic fields and radiofrequency signals to distinguish between normal and abnormal tissues. This technology provides a more detailed diagnostic image than CT scans, enabling it to characterize pulmonary nodules, stage bronchogenic carcinoma, and evaluate inflammatory activity in...
