Abstract
We report a case of omicron infection in a biopsy-proven case of carcinoma breast sent for staging F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) during the omicron COVID wave. FDG PET/computed tomography (CT) revealed increased FDG uptake in nasopharyngeal, oropharynx, and tonsillar regions and bilateral cervical lymph nodes along with uptake in primary carcinoma and locoregional lymph nodes. Based on the clinical history and specific pattern of FDG PET/CT findings (as suggested by SNMMI Taskforce), COVID history and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction positivity was elicited.
