A 42 years old woman underwent F-18 FDG PET because of the incidentally detected lung mass on chest X-ray. PET/CT showed hypermetabolic lesion in the lung right upper lobe and the lung cancer was suspected because of the high FDG uptake. However, pathologic diagnosis was sclerosing hemangioma. There are few reports on the evaluation of sclerosing hemangioma using FDG PET. A report showed a slightly increased uptake (standardized uptake ratio of 1.8) (1), and another report showed unsatisfactory result (2). We suggest that sclerosing hemangioma could be seen as hypermetabolic lesion on the FDG PET.
