Abstract
Objective To assess the clinical value of 18 F‐fluorodeoxyglucose ( FDG ) positron emission tomography ( PET ) in a prospective cohort of patients with large vessel vasculitis ( LVV ) and comparator subjects. Methods Patients with Takayasu arteritis and giant cell arteritis were studied, along with a comparator group consisting of patients with hyperlipidemia, patients with diseases that mimic LVV , and healthy controls. Participants underwent...
