The exclusion criteria were: presence of cancer or other diseases that resemble sarcoidosis on PET\/CT (Wegener syndrome, tuberculosis, aspergillosis), and the glucose level being greater than 11\u2009mmol\/L.

The disease was usually present in the lower limbs, upper limbs, and skeletal striated muscles. The most common pattern of disease was nodular.
