Advanced imaging of cardiac sarcoidosis.
Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disease of unknown etiology. Cardiac involvement may occur, leading to an adverse outcome. Although early treatment to improve morbidity and mortality is desirable, sensitive and accurate detection of cardiac sarcoidosis remains a challenge. Accordingly, interest in the use of advanced imaging such as cardiac MR and PET with (18)F-FDG is increasing in ord...
متن کاملAssessment of Cardiac Sarcoidosis with Advanced Imaging Modalities
Sarcoidosis is a chronic systemic disease of unknown etiology that is characterized by the presence of noncaseating epithelioid granulomas, usually in multiple organs. Several studies have shown that sarcoidosis might be the result of an exaggerated granulomatous reaction after exposure to unidentified antigens in genetically susceptible individuals. Cardiac involvement may occur and lead to an...
متن کاملTissue Doppler imaging in cardiac sarcoidosis.
A middle-aged African lady, who presented with ventricular tachycardias, mitral valve regurgitation and congestive heart failure, was diagnosed with cardiac sarcoidosis. Tissue Doppler imaging demonstrated abnormalities suggestive of myocardial scar, which was confirmed by contrast-enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance.

متن کاملRole of Metabolic Imaging in Detecting Cardiac Involvement in Sarcoidosis.
pensity for physiological myocardial 18F-FDG uptake.8 This being the case, JSNC recommendations based on recent studies have suggested preparation involving long fasting and diet modification prior to 18F-FDG PET studies.5,9 Given the challenges associated with 18F-FDG preparation, alternative diagnostic approaches for CS are being sought. In this issue of the Journal, Momose et al assess the d...
