TY - JOUR ID - 1398911 AU - Řehák, Zdeněk - Šprláková-Puková, Andrea - Kazda, Tomáš - Fojtík, Zdeněk - Vargová, Lenka - Němec, Petr PY - 2017 TI - F-18-FDG PET/CT in polymyalgia rheumatica-a pictorial review JF - BRITISH JOURNAL OF RADIOLOGY VL - 90 IS - 1076 SP - 1-6 EP - 1-6 PB - BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY SN - 00071285 KW - Polymyalgia rheumatica N2 - Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) is one of the inflammatory rheumatic diseases that can potentially be detected by positron emission tomography/CT. High fluorine-18 fludeoxyglucose (F-18-FDG) accumulation around the shoulders, sternoclavicular and hip joints are the most common pre-treatment features of patients with PMR. Another common sign is increased F-18-FDG uptake in extra-articular regions between columnal spinous processes, near ischial tuberosities and in the praepubic area. Some patients also present with high F-18-FDG uptake in main arteries, corresponding to the characteristics of giant cell arteritis. It is possible to observe a decrease or even a disappearance of F-18-FDG uptake after effective therapy, an event which may be useful for the monitoring of treatment as well as for detection of PMR relapse.
