We report a marked abnormality in myocardial attenuation on non-gated contrast-enhanced CT in a patient with multiorgan sarcoidosis and correlate our findings with CMR, PET and SPECT. The noteworthy observation of myocardial hypoattenuation, in correspondence with the multimodality cardiovascular imaging findings, suggests that standard contrast-enhanced CT may provide information regarding tissue characterization. This report also demonstrates the independent clinical utility of CMR and PET in the evaluation and management of cardiac sarcoidosis.
我们报告了一例多器官结节病患者的非门控对比增强 CT 上心肌衰减明显异常,并将我们的发现与 CMR、PET 和 SPECT 进行了相关性分析。心肌低衰减的显著观察结果与多模态心血管成像结果一致,提示标准对比增强 CT 可能提供关于组织特征的信息。本报告还展示了 CMR 和 PET 在评估和管理心脏结节病方面的独立临床应用价值。
