In this exhaustive review the authors assessed the qualitative and quantitative methods used for the assessment of vasculitis by 18-FDG-PET. They concluded that the qualitative methods may be more specific than semiquantitative ones, but they have lower sensitivity

[Epub ahead of print] The clinical spectrum of patients with large vessel involvement in the setting of GCA is different from that found in patients presenting with typical cranial manifestations of GCA. Patients with large vessel involvement have less frequency of severe visual complication but they experience more relapses and have higher corticosteroid requirements than those presenting with classic cranial manifestations
