I have gone through your PET CT Scan report and it appears to be normal. If there is uptake of FDG by any area it signifies metastasis of tumor cells...there is no uptake of FDG on your scan and lymph nodes have normal shape and size thus representing normal anatomy.
I hope this answers your query. Please feel free to contact HCM again if you have any concern. Wishing you good health.
