“…Since their approval at the end of 2020, COVID-19 vaccines have been widely distributed worldwide, and reports on FDG PET findings after vaccine administration have been published since the first half of 2021 [2,[16][17][18]. Vaccine-induced accumulation in the ipsilateral axillary lymph nodes is known to be observed not only with FDG but also with [ 11 C] Choline [19], [ 18 F]Choline [20], [ 18 F] prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) [20], [ 68 Ga]DOTA-peptide (DOTATATE) [21], and [ 177 Lu] Lu-DOTATATE PRRT post-therapy planar scintigraphy, as well as single-photon emission computed tomography with computed tomography (SPECT/CT) [22]. On the other hand, [ 68 Ga] fibroblast-activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) was reported to show no accumulation in the enlarged axillary lymph nodes after vaccine administration, similar to our report on [ 18 F]FES, which may be useful in distinguishing lymph node metastasis [23].…”
