Abstract

The identification of cardiac sarcoidosis is challenging as there is no gold standard consensually admitted for its diagnosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of the assessment of cardiac dynamic 18F-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) and net influx constant (Ki) in patients suspected of cardiac sarcoidosis.
