Article Synopsis
- Cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) is a serious inflammatory heart disease that can cause significant health issues like arrhythmias and heart failure.
- Recent advancements in cardiac imaging, particularly [F]FDG PET and [I]BMIPP SPECT, have enhanced the detection of CS by identifying inflammation and damage in the heart.
- [F]FDG PET is the primary method for spotting myocardial inflammation, while [I]BMIPP SPECT helps reveal both early and advanced damage, suggesting that using both imaging techniques together could improve diagnosis and treatment of CS.
