Abstract:
Primary bone lymphoma (PBL) is a rare primary extranodal lymphoma. It can occur in many parts of the body but rarely in the maxilla. We describe a case of fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) imaging revealed solitary osseous lytic lesion with intense uptake in the maxilla, suggesting a primary skeletal malignancy. The subsequent histopathologic examination confirmed the diagnosis of high-grade B-cell lymphoma (HGBL).

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...
