Vessel Wall Inflammatory Activity as Determined by F-18 Fluorodeoxyglucose PET in Large Vessel Vasculitis Is Attenuated by Immunomodulatory Drugs.

Hematopoietic Organs Uptake in Vessel Wall Segments Correlated with Signals from Hematopoietic Organs The splenic uptake was positively correlated with VLR in 8/8 (100%) arterial segments ( r ≥ 0.34, p ≤ 0.0007; Figure 4 A), whereas the uptake in bone marrow still reached significance in 3/8 (37.5%) of the investigated vessel walls ( r ≥ 0.2, p ≤ 0.05; Table 4 ), with 2/5 (40%) vessel walls demonstrating a trend toward significance ( p = 0.05, respectively). 3.3.
