Additional file 1 of Predictive potential of ACE phenotyping in extrapulmonary sarcoidosis

Additional file 1: Fig. S1. Unremarkable whole body PET scan in a patient with elevated blood ACE levels. A whole body PET/CT was performed on a patient (#82B) with elevated blood ACE level (180%). Top panels shows multi-planar PET reformations –sagittal (A), axial (B) and coronal (frontal) (C). Bottom panel illustrates fused PET/CT (D) and CT (E) images demonstrating no increased FDG uptake in the areas of mediastinal or hilar lymph nodes. Further examinations confirmed that the patient had hyperthyroidism rather than sarcoidosis.
