Fig 1 Computed tomography scan of right thigh shows no specific signs of vascular graft infection except for a partially developed nonspecific hypodense faint rim around some parts of graft.

Fig 2 Positron emission tomography scan demonstrates intense abnormal fluorodeoxyglucose uptake from groin to knee. Uptake is more prominent in central part of thigh. On FDG-PET/CT fused image, focus is precisely localized to vascular graft.
