Axial and coronal 18−FDG PET/CT fusion images of two distinct esophageal malignancies with different metabolic profiles. Illustration of the distinct metabolic profile a cT1N0 adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal junction (Panels a and b, SUVmax = 5.5, TLG = 5) versus a cT3N+ squamous cell middle third lesion (Panels c and d, SUVmax = 12.8, TLG = 311.5). The white arrows show the primary tumor hypercaptation in each image
