AbstractF18-FDG PET-CT (Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Computed Tomography) scanning has a proven role in the staging of various cancers;the physiological distribution of F18-FDG must be understood thoroughly in order to improve the accuracy of image interpretation. We describe the case of a 2 year old child with Langerhans cell histiocytosis, who cried at the time of cannulation before undergoing F18-FDG PET-CT scanning.
