Localization of Pyelonephritis by Ga-FAPI PET CT.

Fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) is a quinoline-based membrane-bound glycoprotein enzyme that is not usually expressed in normal adult tissues, except for the myometrium and sometimes the pancreas. Its expression increases in inflammation and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF). As FAPI is a new molecule with a promising future, presented here is a case report of uncontrolled diabetes with abdominal pain that showed features of inflammation in the kidneys.
