Bill,

False positives are common on PET's my friend, don't let it rile you. The 10 uptake is high and if indicative of a tumor would more then likely show up on the other scans. I'm not a Dr but I would definitely wait for the biopsy results before I let it cross my mind more then once. I guess the way I think about it is if I've got an area that is four times higher then what's considered malignant it really should show on the MRI or CT as well.

Best of luck with the biopsy, I hope you can ease your mind.

Eric
