Eur J Hybrid Imaging. 2020;4(1):13. doi: 10.1186/s41824-020-00082-y. Epub 2020 Jul 22.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on health care systems across the globe in a short period of time. There is a growing body of evidence surrounding the findings on hybrid imaging with FDG-PET/CT, and this case highlights the importance of molecular imaging in better understanding of the biomarkers of the disease which ultimately determine the success in building a model to predict the disease severity and monitoring the response to treatment.

Keywords: 18F-FDG PET/CT; COVID-19.
