Abstract
More prevalent in women than men, Antisynthetase Syndrome is a rare and poorly defined autoimmune disease associated with interstitial lung disease, polymyositis, and dermatomyositis. In addition to various diagnostic tools, imaging modalities are needed in certain situations. A 42-year-old woman with Anti-Jo-1-positive Antisynthetase Syndrome presented with thoracic muscular pain. She underwent whole-body Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (F18-FDG PET/CT) to evaluate the total extent of the muscles affected. Depicting symptomatic symmetric myositis of the intercostal muscles, F18-FDG PET/CT additionally revealed unusually extensive fasciitis of the lower extremities.
期刊介绍：
Als Standes- und Fachorgan (Organ von Deutscher Gesellschaft für Nuklearmedizin (DGN), Österreichischer Gesellschaft für Nuklearmedizin und Molekulare Bildgebung (ÖGN), Schweizerischer Gesellschaft für Nuklearmedizin (SGNM, SSNM)) von hohem wissenschaftlichen Anspruch befasst sich die CME-zertifizierte Nuklearmedizin/ NuclearMedicine mit Diagnostik und Therapie in der Nuklearmedizin und dem Strahlenschutz: Originalien, Übersichtsarbeiten, Referate und Kongressberichte stellen aktuelle Themen der Diagnose und Therapie dar.
Ausführliche Berichte aus den DGN-Arbeitskreisen, Nachrichten aus Forschung und Industrie sowie Beschreibungen innovativer technischer Geräte, Einrichtungen und Systeme runden das Konzept ab.
Die Abstracts der Jahrestagungen dreier europäischer Fachgesellschaften sind Bestandteil der Kongressausgaben.
Nuklearmedizin erscheint regelmäßig mit sechs Ausgaben pro Jahr und richtet sich vor allem an Nuklearmediziner, Radiologen, Strahlentherapeuten, Medizinphysiker und Radiopharmazeuten.
