Comparative analysis of arterial involvement in predominant cranial and isolated extracranial phenotypes of giant cell arteritis using 18F-FDG PET-CT

Abstract Objective To investigate differences in arterial involvement patterns on 18F-FDG PET-CT between predominant cranial and isolated extracranial phenotypes of giant cell arteritis (GCA). Methods A retrospective review of 18F-FDG PET-CT findings was conducted on 140 patients with confirmed GCA....
