Positive fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) showing hypermetabolism activity in vertebral and subclavian arteries, with a maximum standard uptake value (SUV max) of 4.5 (liver SUV max = 3.5), ratio = (A) Axial 18F-FDG PET. (B) Fused 18FDG PET/CT in axial slice. (C) Anterior 18F-FDG PET. (D, E) Fused 18F-FDG PET/CT in anterior slice (D) and maximum intensity projection (E).
