Long fasting is effective in inhibiting physiological myocardial (18)F-FDG uptake and for evaluating active lesions of cardiac sarcoidosis

BACKGROUND: F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) is a promising modality for detecting active lesions of cardiac sarcoidosis (CS). However, determining whether (18)F-FDG uptake in the myocardium is physiological is challenging due to metabolic shift in myocardial cells. Alth...
