Spondylodiscitis is an infectious process that requires numerous health care professionals to be clearly diagnosed and eventually successfully treated. It implies a variety of microbiological agents and conditions; during the diagnostic workup, it is difficult to correctly identify them, and the clinician has to rapidly choose the correct treatment to avoid permanent injuries to the patient. In this context, we conducted a review to better understand the most suitable use of Positron Emission Tomography with 18-Fluoro-deossi-glucose (FDG PET) in a patient suspected of spondylodiscitis, based on current guidelines and literature.. We wanted to review the role of FDG PET in the spondylodiscitis diagnosis and follow up in the context of the current guidelines.

脊柱骨髓炎是一种感染性疾病，需要众多医疗保健专业人员进行明确诊断和最终成功治疗。它涉及多种微生物病原体和情况；在诊断过程中，很难正确识别它们，临床医生必须迅速选择正确的治疗方法，以避免对患者造成永久性伤害。在这种情况下，我们根据当前的指南和文献，对 18 氟脱氧葡萄糖（FDG PET）正电子发射断层扫描（PET）在疑似脊柱骨髓炎患者中的最佳使用进行了回顾，以更好地了解这一问题。我们希望在当前指南的背景下，回顾 FDG PET 在脊柱骨髓炎诊断和随访中的作用。
