摘要：
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a useful tool for local control of unresectable pulmonary neoplastic lesions. However, RFA is limited to tumors smaller than 4 cm and peripheral lesions. The sensitivity and specificity of FDG-PET are higher than those of computed tomography. FDG-PET at 3 to 6 months after RFA is important for predicting recurrence. Complications associated with RFA, such as infection and abscess formation, which concentrate glucose in the ablation area, can cause false-positive findings in PET examination. Knowledge of the morphologic imaging features of these complications is important in avoiding these potential pitfalls.
