Cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) results from epithelioid cell granulomas infiltrating the myocardium
and predisposing to conduction disturbances, ventricular tachyarrhythmias, and heart …

Background There is no consensus regarding the relative prognostic value of cardiac MRI
and fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET in cardiac sarcoidosis. Purpose To perform a systematic …

Abstract Introduction Hybrid [18F] FDG PET imaging is currently the method of choice for a

Sarcoidosis is a multisystem disorder of unknown etiology. The leading hypothesis involves
an antigen-triggered dysregulated T-cell-driven immunologic response leading to non …

Background Although positron emission tomography (PET) imaging is well established for
its diagnostic role in cardiac sarcoidosis, less is known about the prognostic value of PET …

Cardiac involvement is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with sarcoidosis.
