ABSTRACT The clinical value of 16α-18F-fluoro-17 β-estradiol (18F-FES) PET in breast cancer has been widely investigated because it can visualize estrogen receptor-expressing lesions. This relatively new radiotracer adds clinical values by characterization of metastasis in double primary cancer. It also has advantage in finding small brain lesions, which has no background brain activity. Here, we present 18F-FES PET findings of brain and leptomeningeal metastases in a patient with breast and lung malignancy.
