Abstract
- Abstract: Dermatomyositis is an idiopathic inflammatory myopathy often associated with malignancies. 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT was performed on a 58-year-old man with newly diagnosed dermatomyositis. 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT showed multiple increased FAPI activity in whole-body muscles and nasopharyngeal lesion. A biopsy of the nasopharyngeal lesion confirmed nasopharyngeal carcinoma. 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT can provide a "1-stop" imaging method for patients with dermatomyositis.<br />Competing Interests: Conflicts of interest and sources of funding: none declared.<br /> (Copyright © 2021 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.
