Case report: imaging of central nervous system sarcoidosis with gallium-67 single photon emission computed tomography.
Involvement of the nervous system is an uncommon and underdiagnosed complication of sarcoidosis. We used gallium single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) to define areas of meningeal involvement in a patient with neurosarcoidosis. This technique may be of value in the assessment of patients with sarcoidosis and suspected central nervous system involvement.
