    (A) SPECT image of abdomen and pelvis showing deviation of urinary bladder (maximum-intensity projection). Arrow shows deviation of urinary bladder. (B) SPECT/CT image of abdomen and pelvis showing deviation of urinary bladder by large mass (coronal view). Arrow shows deviation of urinary bladder in CT portion of image.

  • FIGURE 3.
    FIGURE 3.

    (A) Coronal view of abdomen and pelvis from dedicated diagnostic CT scan showing large lipoma in pelvis. This scan was obtained immediately after MPI study. Arrow shows deviation of urinary bladder before resection. (B) Coronal view from dedicated CT scan after resection of lipoma. Arrow shows where lipoma was before resection.
