Asymmetric Tongue Muscle Uptake of F-18 FDG: Possible Marker for Cranial Nerve XII Paralysis

A 58-year-old woman, with nonsmall cell carcinoma, had multiple metastasis on 2-F-18 FDG positron emission tomography imaging. The right hemitongue had increased activity as compared with the left. This was not the result of the presence of a metastasis to the tongue, as shown by a negative computed...
