Specific features to differentiate Giant cell arteritis aortitis from aortic atheroma using FDG-PET/CT
Abstract Aortic wall 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-uptake does not allow differentiation of aortitis from atheroma, which is problematic in clinical practice for diagnosing large vessel vasculitis giant-cell arteritis (GCA) in elderly patients. The purpose of this study was to compare the FDG uptake...
