Hi. I was diagnosed with a mixed germ cell cancer. I finished my chemo in March and currently had a 2nd follow up Petscan. I went to the hospital to get a copy of the results. My dr. is currently on vacation so I can't discuss results for over a week from today. I have my own idea of what the results mean but want to be sure. Impression states: new increased hypermetabolism within patient's peritoneal metastatic lesions. The largest lesion in the pelvis has an suv ranging from 5-9. While the overall amount and size of these metastatic lesions have not changed, there is now new fdg avidity Which was not present on the patient's prior study from 4/2016. Anyone know what these means?
