What is the significance of increased FDG uptake in the endometrium or adnexa?
In premenopausal women, mild FDG uptake may normally be seen in the endometrium during the early menstrual cycle or in midcycle, and in the fallopian tubes or ovaries during midcycle. However, in postmenopausal women, increased endometrial or adnexal FDG uptake is generally considered as suspicious for malignancy until proven otherwise.
