Abstract
Sarcoidosis is a non-caseating granulomatous systemic disease of unknown pathogenesis, and cardiac involvement is the most important prognostic factor. We have evaluated the value of the combined study of F-18 fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography and iodine-123 labeled 15-(p-iodophenyl)-3R,S-methylpentadecanoic acid single-photon emission tomography for the assessment of cardiac involvement of sarcoidosis, by comparing the findings with gadolinium magnetic resonance in a patient with histologically-proven cardiac sarcoidosis.
