“…However, sometimes FDG uptake occurs only in gallbladder lesions. Because benign gallbladder lesions, such as cholecystitis [ 29 ], adenomyomatosis [ 30 ] and gallbladder polyps [ 31 ], also have FDG uptake, when this occurs, the diagnosis is often controversial. The uptake of adenomyomatosis and gallbladder polyps is often lower than that of the liver parenchyma; thus, it is easier to differentiate from GBC [ 31 , 32 ].…”

“…Recently, we also reported a resected case of GBC coexisting with ADM, which was successfully diagnosed preoperatively by FDG-PET/CT. 20 Segmental ADM occurring in the gallbladder fundic mucosa is considered a precancerous condition, and the type of ADM appears to be important for GBC development. Ootani et al 6 reported that GBC developed in 6.4% (12/279 cases) of patients with segmental ADM, whereas no clear association was found between localized and generalized ADM and GBC.…”
