This is a list of common, uh, pitfalls

0:04

and other benign lesions that may show that the date uptake

0:08

that is important to be aware of to not

0:11

misdiagnose some of these.

0:13

We've already mentioned the example

0:16

of physiologic uptake in the anti process of the pancreas

0:20

if patient had an accessory spleen in the, uh,

0:25

ganglia, celiac andal ganglia.

0:28

But as far as when I lesions that may have mild, uh,

0:32

dototate uptake, uh,

0:33

these include the genetic changes in the bone fracture,

0:37

mangi, epithelial growth plates,

0:42

reactive lymph nodes or inflammatory uh, processes, sitis

0:47

or any, uh, inflammation.

0:50

And a very well known pitfall is, uh, meningioma.

0:55

So let's now review a couple of examples.
