A 73-year-old patient diagnosed with bladder cancer who underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT for staging. Axial CT scan (a) showed 6 mm retroperitoneal lymph nodes (white arrow) that was not considered suspicious based on CT scan morphologic criteria. Axial fused PET/CT images (b) demonstrated the hypermetabolic retroperitoneal features of this small lymph node, denoting its metastatic nature (white arrow). MIP PET (c) shows the hypermetabolic abdominopelvic lymph nodes (black arrow)
