Abstract

Ventriculoperitoneal shunt malfunction is common in patients after shunt surgery. Imaging is done to reveal the underlying cause and confirm the diagnosis. Shunt infection is one of the common causes of shunt malfunction. FDG PET CT is an accepted infection imaging tool and can be used to diagnose shunt infection accurately in a patient with high clinical suspicion.

摘要

脑室腹腔分流管故障在分流手术后的患者中很常见。影像学检查用于揭示潜在原因并确认诊断。分流感染是分流故障的常见原因之一。FDG PET CT 是一种公认的感染影像学工具，可用于高度疑似感染的患者中准确诊断分流感染。
