一名58岁女性，患有非小细胞癌，在2-F-18 FDG正电子发射断层扫描成像上有多处转移。与左侧相比，右侧半舌活动增加。这不是由于存在转移到舌头的结果，如该区域的阴性计算机断层扫描所示，并且在数周内未能显示病变。摄取可能与右半舌肌活动有关。由于左侧脑神经XII麻痹，舌对侧（直到中线）的摄取减少，这一点更加明显。
A 58-year-old woman, with nonsmall cell carcinoma, had multiple metastasis on 2-F-18 FDG positron emission tomography imaging. The right hemitongue had increased activity as compared with the left. This was not the result of the presence of a metastasis to the tongue, as shown by a negative computed tomography scan of the region and failure to demonstrate a lesion over a period of weeks. Uptake was likely related to right hemiglossal muscle activity. This was made more apparent by decreased uptake on the opposite side of the tongue (up to the midline) as a result of left cranial nerve XII paralysis.
