18F-FDG PET/CT in the Initial Assessment and for Follow-up in Patients With Tuberculosis

Abstract

Both components of 18F-FDG PET/CT provide complementary information at initial evaluation and during follow-up; however, 18F-FDG showed more abnormal findings than CT. 18F-FDG PET/CT might be useful for the establishment of individualized treatment regimes, but this requires further prospective studies.
