Abstract
- Patient preparation is crucial for reliable interpretation of cardiac inflammation FDG PET. We share our experience of improved reporting confidence and propose a simple approach of prolonging preparation (from 24 to 48 hours) with the high-fat, no-carbohydrate, and protein-permitted diet followed by fasting in cardiac sarcoidosis in cases with diffuse or focal-on-diffuse myocardial FDG uptake.<br /> (© 2023.
