The use of molecular imaging with PET/CT technology using different radiotracers, especially the (18)F-FDG is currently spreading beyond the area of oncology, the most interest being placed on inflammatory and infectious diseases. This article presents a review of its contribution in different inflammatory conditions in the context of structural and conventional nuclear medicine imaging. Special emphasis is placed on the more significant diseases such as large-vessel vasculitis, sarcoidosis, rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease and the study of the atheroma plaque.
使用不同放射性示踪剂的PET/CT技术进行分子成像,尤其是(18)F-FDG,目前正在肿瘤学领域之外得到广泛应用,其中最受关注的是炎症和感染性疾病。本文综述了其在结构和传统核医学成像背景下对不同炎症状态的贡献。特别强调了诸如大血管血管炎、结节病、类风湿性关节炎和炎症性肠病等更重要的疾病以及动脉粥样硬化斑块的研究。
