1 Vascular inflammation in psoriasis localizes to the arterial wall using a novel imaging technique 
Jenny Dave, MS, Mark A. Ahlman, MD, Benjamin N. Lockshin, MD, David A. Bluemke, MD, PhD, Nehal N. Mehta, MD, MSCE  Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology  Volume 70, Issue 6, Pages (June 2014) DOI: /j.jaad Copyright © Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 A fused PET-CT scan at the level of the aortic arch. This image depicts increased FDG uptake at 60 minutes' uptake time within the aortic arch of a patient with moderate psoriasis and no other cardiovascular risk factors. The orange-red uptake on this color scale corresponds to moderately high uptake of the FDG tracer per the scale provided on the left of the image.

3 Fig 2 In the same patient as in Fig 1, this image demonstrates a T1-weighted spin echo MRI with suppressed blood signal fused to PET. This image demonstrates that the FDG tracer uptake at 120 minutes has localized to the arterial wall (white arrows). The orange-red uptake on this color scale corresponds to moderately high uptake of the FDG tracer per the scale provided on the left of the image.
