“…Patients underwent specific cardiac [ 18 F]FDG PET/CTA including myocardial FDG suppression measures and the combination of both metabolic (PET) and anatomic (CTA) ECG-gated cardiac acquisitions, as previously described. 10–12 Fused PET/CTA images were evaluated by two experienced cardiac imaging specialists, a cardiac radiologist and a nuclear cardiologist. Double-oblique planes were used to obtain transverse views of the PVs.…”

“…The prosthetic/periprosthetic [ 18 F]FDG uptake pattern was visually analysed in attenuation correction (AC), localized ECG-gated cardiac (C-Bed), and non-attenuation correction (NAC) images, and was classified as: ‘absent’, ‘focal/multifocal’, or ‘diffuse’, with the latter being further sub-classified into ‘homogeneous’ or ‘heterogeneous’, as previously defined. 9 , 10 Focal/multifocal and diffuse-heterogeneous distributions are considered ‘abnormal patterns’ suggestive of infection, against absent and diffuse-homogenous uptakes that are considered ‘normal patterns’. CTA images were systematically evaluated to detect IE-related anatomic lesions (vegetations, abscesses, pseudoaneurysms, and fistulae).…”

“…IE criteria were qualitative and considered positive when any uptake of 18F-FDG higher than the background that met the features described below was visually detected. Globally, we can define the following [31]:…”
