Increased lung [18F]-FDG uptake in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension with distal involvement

# metadata.dc.description.abstract[].value
Patients with distal chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) show greater FDG lung uptake on PET scans than those with proximal disease, suggesting a proliferative microvasculopathy. These findings support further investigation on the role of PET/CT in characterising CTEPH.
