Laryngeal Tuberculosis Mimicking Laryngeal Carcinoma on 18F-FDG PET/CT Imaging
Open accessAbstract
Laryngeal tuberculosis is a rare presentation of tuberculosis.It can mimic laryngeal carcinoma with its clinical and imaging findings.A 51-year old woman underwent 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging for clinically suspected carcinoma of the larynx.PET/CT revealed lung lesions consistent with tuberculosis in additional to hypermetabolic focus on larynx.The patient was histopathologically diagnosed with lung and laryngeal tuberculosis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
