Cardiac fibroblast activation detected by 68Gallium-FAPI-46 positron emission tomography–magnetic resonance imaging as a sign of chronic activity in cardiac sarcoidosis

European Heart Journal: Case Reports, 2022
In a patient with cardiac sarcoidosis, follow-up FDG-PET suggested complete remission under immunosuppression whereas FAPI-PET demonstrated ongoing fibroblast activation pointing at its potential to monitor chronic activity in sarcoidosis.

Current State and Future Directions of Multimodality Imaging in Cardiac Sarcoidosis

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) is an increasingly recognized cause of heart failure and arrhythmia. Historically challenging to identify, particularly in the absence of extracardiac sarcoidosis, diagnosis of CS has improved with advancements in cardiac imaging.
