Effective Use of F-18-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography to Rule Out Prosthetic Aortic Valve as the Source of Infection
Several nuclear imaging techniques can be used to diagnose infectious and inflammatory processes. F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) is a useful diagnostic technique to detect inflammation and infection quickly and accurately. We report the case o...
