“…For the non-invasive molecular imaging of vascular inflammation, nuclear medicine constitutes one of the best imaging modalities, thanks to its high sensitivity for the detection of probes in tissues. 2-[(18)F]fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose ([(18)F]FDG) is currently the most widely used radiopharmaceutical for molecular imaging of vascular inflammatory diseases such as atherosclerosis and large-vessel vasculitis. The combination of [(18)F]FDG and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging has become a powerful tool to identify and monitor non-invasively inflammatory activities over time but suffers from several limitations including a lack of specificity and avid background in different localizations. …”

Despite no reported efficacy of extended-release formulations in refractory BD yet, such a dosage form has pharmacokinetic parameters that are comparable to those of conventional immediate-release formulations. …”
