Background: It is reported that up to 25–57% with cardiac sarcoid (CS) may have isolated cardiac sarcoidosis (ICS). The wide variation in prevalence could be related to the diagnostic method(s) for assessing extra–cardiac involvement. Whole-body 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography computed tomography (18F-FDG PET-CT) imaging may be a useful technique for screening for extra–cardiac involvement in cases of suspected ICS.
