Features of IgG4-related lung disease on 18F-FDG PET/computed tomography imaging

Conclusions The image patterns of IgG4-RLD on 18F-FDG PET/CT are varying. Multiple pulmonary manifestations or multiple organ involvement, especially in combination with elevated levels of serum IgG and IgG4, may help to make the diagnosis. A potential major application of PET-CT would be evaluation of response to treatment, and the impact of PET/CT on IgG4-RLD management is worth investigating further in the future.
