We report two cases of drug-induced pneumonitis in two patients treated for breast cancer who were diagnosed by FDG-PET examination. Both of these cases showed diffuse interstitial infiltration in the bilateral lungs on CT, but the degree of FDG accumulation was different. It is probable that the degree of FDG accumulation reflected the activity of the drug-induced pneumonitis. The present cases show very interesting FDG-PET imaging findings of diffuse lung disease.}, title = {FDG positron emission tomography imaging of drug-induced pneumonitis}, year = {2008} }
