Inflammation, Scar, or Both? Interpreting Positron Emission Tomography Patterns in Cardiac Sarcoidosis
Abstract
can lead to life-threatening complications, including fatal ventricular arrhythmias, advanced heart failure, and sudden cardiac death.4 Therefore, accurate diagnosis of CS is important for risk stratification and for guiding therapeutic interventions such as immunosuppressive therapy and S arcoidosis is a systemic inflammatory disorder characterized by the presence of non-caseating granulomas in various organs.Pulmonary sarcoidosis is the most frequent presentation, although all organs can be affected.Cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) refers to cardiac involvement in patients with sarcoidosis, and is estimated to be present in 20-30% of patients with systemic sarcoidosis.1-3 Although the exact etiology of CS remains unknown, it Article p ????
