CT (A) demonstrates new left upper lobe mass representing new primary NSCLC in a patient who had a status post–right pneumonectomy for a prior NSCLC. CT (B) obtained in the same patient 2 weeks after radiofrequency ablation (RFA) demonstrates the postablation density in the left upper lobe. Fused PET/CT (C) obtained 4 months after RFA demonstrates mild [18F]FDG uptake at RFA site in the left upper lobe consistent with posttreatment inflammation. Fused PET/CT (D) obtained 7 months after RFA demonstrates new focal [18F]FDG uptake at post-RFA-opacity consistent with recurrent tumor.
