AB  - 64 year old female patient who attended hospital for jaundice was referred for F-18 FDG PET-CT to determine malignant biliary obstruction. The imaging showed hypermetabolic thickening of the lateral gall bladder wall which was mimicking adenomyomatosis radiologically. The pathology results revealed gall bladder cancer.
