Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Caseous necrosis is a type of cell death that causes tissues to become “cheese-like” in appearance. The most common cause is tuberculosis, where granulomas form in your lungs.
Detailed explanation-2: -Caseous necrosis is an important characteristic of TB; hence, the central part of lymph node has no obvious FDG uptake, whereas lymphoma shows uniform intense FDG accumulation. This different FDG uptake in PET/CT imaging is a significant diagnostic characteristic to identify lymph node TB.
