摘要：
Schistosomiasis is a helminthic infection acquired through direct contact with contaminated fresh water. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case pulmonary of schistosomias is evaluated with F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-18-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) reported in the literature. Functional imaging with F-18-FDG PET/CT may help in the diagnosis of schistosomiasis, leading to a correct definition of the disease extension.
