Abstract

¹⁸F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) has been used previously for the diagnosis of sepsis of unknown focus and pyrexia of unknown origin. Its use in the diagnosis of pyomyositis has not been fully explored. Pyomyositis was found to be an important cause of sepsis, but its cause has not been fully elucidated in previous studies exploring the role of PET. We studied the role of whole-body ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT in the diagnosis and management of 10 patients with suspected multifocal pyomyositis. In our study, we were able to find a distant focus in 7 out of 10 patients, which led to changes in treatment and outcome.

全身18f -氟脱氧葡萄糖正电子发射断层扫描/计算机断层扫描在难治性多灶性化脓性炎中的作用

18f -氟脱氧葡萄糖（FDG）正电子发射断层扫描(PET)/计算机断层扫描（CT）以前已用于诊断不明病灶的败血症和不明原因的发热。其在化脓性肌炎诊断中的应用尚未得到充分探讨。脓毒症是脓毒症的重要病因，但在以往PET作用的研究中，脓毒症的病因尚未完全阐明。我们研究了全身18F-FDG PET/CT在10例疑似多灶性化脓性炎的诊断和治疗中的作用。在我们的研究中，我们能够在10个患者中找到7个远处病灶，这导致了治疗和结果的改变。
