A Case of Isolated Cardiac Sarcoidosis Diagnosed With Multimodality Cardiac Imaging.
Overview
abstract
• Cardiac sarcoidosis causes conduction abnormalities, arrhythmias, and heart failure. • Echocardiogram may show septal thinning, aneurysms, and wall motion abnormalities. • Cardiac MRI may identify myocardial scar by late gadolinium enhancement. • FDG PET/CT imaging identifies active inflammation and monitors response to therapy. • Multimodality imaging may diagnose isolated cardiac sarcoidosis without biopsy.
