Corticosteroid-induced white fat uptake of FDG is a rare phenomenon that can limit diagnostic accuracy of FDG-PET/CT and necessitate repeat imaging. Current evidence suggests that a wait period of at least one week after discontinuation of corticosteroids is sufficient to allow for decreased white fat uptake and increased diagnostic accuracy.
