Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography–computed tomography. The abnormal uptake of the liver metastasis in segment 3 (a yellow arrowhead; SUV*max was 4.65) and para-aortic lymph nodes were identified (b pink arrowheads; SUVmax was 2.53) 12 months after laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy. After six courses of chemotherapy, the uptake of the liver lesion was stronger (c green arrowheads; SUVmax was 7.47), but the uptake of the para-aortic lymph nodes vanished (d SUVmax was 1.70). *: standardized uptake value
