Abstract

Tuberculosis can occur in multiple organs throughout the body. It's difficult to identify tuberculosis and other systemic diseases (especially tumor diseases) because of the different imaging features. 18F-FDG PET/CT has certain advantages in the diagnosis of systemic diseases, but it still needs to be analyzed in combination with clinical manifestations, laboratory tests, CT signs of lesions and concentration of 18F-FDG. The author select three cases misdiagnosed in clinical practice, namely intestinal tuberculosis, lung tuberculosis and bone tuberculosis, and analyze the clinical features and 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging features, and comb the diagnosis ideas in order to help with clinical diagnosis.
