Abstract

We report PET/CT appearance of bilateral ovarian metastases in a 63-year-old female patient with newly diagnosed poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma of the stomach. She was also found to have peritoneal metastasis on an outside CT study. Staging PET/CT demonstrates not only the hypermetabolic gastric primary tumor and peritoneal disease but also bilateral enlarged, moderately active ovaries. The patient subsequently underwent biopsies of bilateral ovaries which revealed metastatic disease from primary gastric carcinoma. It is important to consider this form of neoplasm in the differential diagnosis because the treatment and prognosis will be different from a dyssynchronous primary tumor.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 07 April 2012.
All research outputs
#22,756,649
of 25,371,288 outputs
Outputs from Clinical Nuclear Medicine
#3,530
of 5,006 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#159,969
of 175,822 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Clinical Nuclear Medicine
#96
of 108 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,371,288 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,006 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 1.5. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 175,822 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 108 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
