Is "significant bilateral hypometabolism of posterior cingulate gyrus" a normal result for pet scan?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Radiologist often does not report a specifically normal finding. Hypo or hypermetabolism of certain part of the brain is considered an abnormal finding. You should discuss with the neurologist who ordered the PET scan. Take care and good luck to you.
