  • Title: Classical skeletal injuries shown on 18F-FDG PET/CT following successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
    Author: Huang YT, Ravi Kumar AS.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 2013 May; 38(5):395-6. PubMed ID: 23531736.
    Abstract:
    Rib and sternal fractures are relatively common following conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). This case demonstrates the 18F-FDG PET/CT appearances of typical CPR-related multiple rib and sternal fractures in a 55-year-old man with suspected cardiac sarcoidosis. The PET/CT scan was performed to assess disease activity of cardiac sarcoidosis, and no active cardiac inflammation was detected. The patient initially presented with an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and successfully received bystander CPR.
