متن کاملSarcoidosis mimicking lymphoma on FDG-PET imaging
Sarcoidosis is an inflammatory, systemic disease characterized by noncaseating granulomas. We describe a case of a 52-year-old female who presented with fevers, chills, night sweats, and weight loss of four months' duration. Lymphoma was suspected, and results of advanced imaging procedures were also consistent with lymphoma. However, mediastinal lymph-node biopsy, bone-marrow aspiration, and b...
متن کاملScar sarcoidosis on 18F-FDG PET/CT
18F-labeled fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography/ computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) is an important imaging modality in the clinical workup of patients with chronic inflammatory disorders which present quite often with a fever of unknown origin. Sarcoidosis is a multisystem chronic inflammatory disorder with a wide clinical spectrum that can involve different organs. The diagno...
متن کامل4D PET: Beyond conventional dynamic PET imaging
In this paper, we review novel techniques in the emerging field of spatiotemporal 4D PET imaging. We will discuss existing limitations in conventional dynamic PET imaging which involves independent reconstruction of dynamic PET datasets. Various approaches that seek to attempt some or all of these limitations are reviewed in this work, including techniques that util...
متن کاملThe Evaluation of Cardiac Sarcoidosis with 18F-FDG PET.
Cardiac involvement in sarcoidosis is associated with poor prognosis. (18)F-FDG PET can detect the presence of cardiac sarcoidosis, assess disease activity, and serve as a means to monitor treatment response in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis.
