Vessel Wall Inflammatory Activity as Determined by F-18 Fluorodeoxyglucose PET in Large Vessel Vasculitis Is Attenuated by Immunomodulatory Drugs
Abstract
F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (F-18 FDG) PET/CT plays an increasing role in the diagnostic workup of large vessel vasculitis (LVV); however, information on the relationship between immunosuppressive drugs and vessel wall uptake is limited. In 94 patients with a confirmed diagnosis of LVV, the vessel wall-to-liver ratio (VLR) was assessed in eight vessel segments. Patients were grouped according to intake of immunomodulatory drugs (Group 1, prednisone;...
