My pet scan report says there is hypermetabolic activity in an enlarged lymph node in the right upper anterior chest wall and slightly increased activity in subcarinal area with a lymph node which is upper normal in size.I am a breast cancer surviror having a mascectomy of the left breast.he pet scan look for tumor activity.
