Ex vivo specimen imaging. Panel A: Digital specimen photograph of the ex vivo tissue specimens, for which the specimen on the right-hand side histologically was confirmed to contain angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, and for which the specimen on the left side represented normal adjacent fatty tissue; and Panel B: Maximum intensity projection (MIP) PET image of whole surgically excised tissue specimens, demonstrating 18F-FDG avidity within the specimen on the right-hand side, corresponding to the histopathology-proven lymphoma, and demonstrating no 18F-FDG avidity within the specimen on the left-hand side.; and Panel C: 3D CT volume rendering with PET overlay image of whole surgically excised tissue specimens, demonstrating 18F-FDG avidity within the specimen on the right-hand side, corresponding to the histopathology-proven lymphoma.
