Description

Purpose: HIV infection is accompanied by impairment of lymphoid organs that can be detected by PET / CT with F.D.G.. The purpose of this study was to correlate lymphocyte reconstitution with the metabolic activity of lymphoid organs. Conclusions: PET / CT with F.D.G. is an appropriate assessment tool to evaluate the effect of antiviral treatment in lymphoid organs. In addition, she is helping to understand the mechanisms of lymphocyte reconstitution under triple therapy. (N.C.)
