FDG avid poorly marginated mass in medial basal segment of right lower lobe infiltrating
oblique fissure with minimal extension into right middle lobe- likely lung carcinoma/ metastasis
FDG avid bilateral pulmonary nodules - likely metastases
FDG avid mediastinal lymph nodes - suspicious for metastases
FDG avid nodules in bilateral adrenal glands - likely metastases
Non FDG avid ill-marginated enhancing lesion in left parietal lobe - metastasis (adv: MRI

Thanks for the report it’s STAGE IV B advanced stage disease .
The prognosis should be explained after molecular testing
For EGFR , ALK , KRAS , PDL1
If any of the the above are positive , can proceed with targeted therapy ( will be expensive) which can give the best prognosis at this stage .
Or else palliative chemotherapy in the option to proceed.
