A 37-year-old man was admitted to our hospital after experiencing syncope. An MRI of his head revealed multiple foci of abnormal signal, which could potentially be metastases. The patient then underwent a 68 Ga-FAPI-04 PET/MRI examination, which revealed multiple FAPI-avid foci in the brain. Upon analyzing the cerebrospinal fluid, it was found that the patient had a Staphylococcus aureus infection. The results suggest that 68 Ga-FAPI-04 PET has the potential to be a valuable tool in the visualization of intracranial infectious lesions.
一名37岁男性在经历晕厥后被收治入院。他的头部MRI显示有多个异常信号灶，可能为转移瘤。随后该患者接受了68 Ga-FAPI-04 PET/MRI检查，结果显示脑内有多个FAPI摄取阳性灶。分析脑脊液后发现患者感染了金黄色葡萄球菌。结果表明，68 Ga-FAPI-04 PET有可能成为可视化颅内感染性病变的一种有价值的工具。
