PET images of patients with either SCC or AC. PET images were acquired from two patients with metastases of SCC (a, c) and AC (b, d). High FDG uptakes were seen in the liver (a, b) while weak to high FAMT uptakes were seen in the liver (c, d). Normal liver uptakes of FAMT were weaker than those of FDG.
