lymphadenopathy/hypermetabolic activity in aortopulmonary window and hilar lymph nodes
Explanation:
Here I think:
ganglionnaire refers to lymph nodes
coulée probably indicates that cancer has spread to lymph nodes. However the text does not mention cancer / metastases so I would not use the terms cancer or metastases. PET scans usually detect hypermetabolic activity (see ref below)
hilaire refers to the hilum of the lung
https://erj.ersjournals.com/content/42/Suppl_57/P452
Objectives. The two major drainage pathways of the left lung are the subaortic and para-aortic lymph node pathways. However, the prevalence of metastasis to the aortopulmonary window lymph nodes (APW-LNs) in patients with lung cancer remains unknown.
A PET scan can infer the presence of tumor cells in lymph nodes via the detection of hypermetabolic activity
https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/17224-metasta...
PET scan (positron emission tomography) works to identify areas of hypermetabolic activity anywhere in the body. A radioactive substance is given to the patient and this attaches to glucose, which is attracted to cells that are hypermetabolic. When the scan is done, these areas "light up." Often, but not always, cancer cells fall into this category of being hypermetabolic. In addition, not everything that is hypermetabolic is cancer.

: I think this is too specific. PET scans typically detect hypermetabolic activity, as one of my refs indicates tumor metastases are not the only cause of this.
