Role of 18F-FDG PET/CT in the detection of eosinophilic esophagitis.
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a rare immune-mediated chronic inflammatory disease of the esophagus. The main symptoms are dysphagia, retrosternal pain, and repeated food impaction. Esophageal eosinophilic infiltration is seen on histopathological examination. Progressive esophageal stenosis and other complications may occur if not detected and treated. We report a patient with pathologically confirmed EoE whose disease was detected on fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT). This case demonstrates the important role of 18F-FDG PET/CT in the diagnosis of eosinophilic esophagitis.
期刊介绍:
The Hellenic Journal of Nuclear Medicine published by the Hellenic Society of
Nuclear Medicine in Thessaloniki, aims to contribute to research, to education and
cover the scientific and professional interests of physicians, in the field of nuclear
medicine and in medicine in general. The journal may publish papers of nuclear
medicine and also papers that refer to related subjects as dosimetry, computer science,
targeting of gene expression, radioimmunoassay, radiation protection, biology, cell
trafficking, related historical brief reviews and other related subjects. Original papers
are preferred. The journal may after special agreement publish supplements covering
important subjects, dully reviewed and subscripted separately.
