Vascular uptake on 18F-FDG PET/CT predicts relapse in new-onset PMR
Our findings highlight vascular involvement as a critical predictor of relapse in PMR, underscoring the utility of 18F-FDG PET/CT in detecting subclinical GCA and predicting prognosis. Further research is needed to establish screening protocols and optimize relapse prevention strategies in this population.
