Dual Time-Point 18F-FDG PET/CT in Spinal Sarcoidosis: A Single Institution Case Series
Study Design.A case series of dual time-point 18F-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) for the diagnosis of spinal cord sarcoidosis.Objective.The aim of this study was to illustrate three cases of spinal sarcoidosis with occult presentation and s...
