The most common manifestations consist of polyostotic sclerotic lesions with the majority of cases also demonstrating soft tissue involvement of the sinuses, retroperitoneum, large vessels, heart, lungs, and central nervous system. Nuclear medicine can play an important role in assessing the extent of the disease with bone scintigraphy and fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET). We present the case of a middle-aged female who initially presented with tooth pain. She subsequently underwent imaging including plain film, bone scan, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and FDG-PET\/CT, which showed characteristic bony involvement. Biopsy results confirmed the diagnosis of ECD.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4103\/1450-1147.181149","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,4,25]],"date-time":"2016-04-25T06:53:58Z","timestamp":1461567238000},"page":"71-74","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["The imaging findings of erdheim\u2013chester disease: A multimodality approach to diagnosis and staging"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Patrick","family":"Martineau","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nuclear Medicine, University of Ottawa, Ottawa, Ontario"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Matthieu","family":"Pelletier-Galarneau","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nuclear Medicine, University of Ottawa, Ottawa, Ontario"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wanzhen","family":"Zeng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nuclear Medicine, University of Ottawa, Ottawa, Ontario"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"key-10.4103\/1450-1147.181149-1","first-page":"2783","volume-title":"Systemic perturbation of cytokine and chemokine networks in Erdheim-Chester disease: A single-center series of 37 patients","author":"Arnaud","year":"2011","journal-title":"Blood"},{"key":"key-10.4103\/1450-1147.181149-2","first-page":"157","volume-title":"Erdheim-Chester disease.Clinical and radiologic characteristics of 59 cases","author":"Veyssier-Belot","year":"1996","journal-title":"Medicine (Baltimore)"},{"key":"key-10.4103\/1450-1147.181149-3","first-page":"632","volume-title":"Bone involvement in Erdheim-Chester disease: Imaging findings including periostitis and partial epiphyseal involvement","author":"Dion","year":"2006","journal-title":"Radiology"},{"key":"key-10.4103\/1450-1147.181149-4","first-page":"586","volume-title":"Cerebral, facial, and orbital involvement in Erdheim-Chester disease: CT and MR imaging findings","author":"Drier","year":"2010","journal-title":"Radiology"},{"key":"key-10.4103\/1450-1147.181149-5","first-page":"e597","volume-title":"Images in cardiovascular medicine.Cardiac involvement in Erdheim-Chester disease: Magnetic resonance and computed tomographic scan imaging in a monocentric series of 37 patients","author":"Haroche","year":"2009","journal-title":"Circulation"},{"key":"key-10.4103\/1450-1147.181149-6","first-page":"371","volume-title":"Cardiovascular involvement, an overlooked feature of Erdheim-Chester disease: Report of 6 new cases and a literature review","author":"Haroche","year":"2004","journal-title":"Medicine (Baltimore)"},{"key":"key-10.4103\/1450-1147.181149-7","first-page":"1267","volume-title":"Neurological manifestations and neuroradiological presentation of Erdheim-Chester disease: Report of 6 cases and systematic review of the literature","author":"Lachenal","year":"2006","journal-title":"J Neurol"},{"key":"key-10.4103\/1450-1147.181149-8","first-page":"323","volume-title":"Erdheim-Chester disease: A rare syndrome with a characteristic bone scintigraphy pattern","author":"Spyridonidis","year":"2008","journal-title":"Ann Nucl Med"},{"key":"key-10.4103\/1450-1147.181149-9","first-page":"35","volume-title":"Tc-99m MDP bone scintigraphy and positron emission tomography\/computed tomography (PET\/CT) imaging in Erdheim-Chester disease","author":"Namwongprom","year":"2007","journal-title":"Clin Nucl Med"}],"container-title":["World Journal of Nuclear Medicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.4103\/1450-1147.181149.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,18]],"date-time":"2022-05-18T22:58:40Z","timestamp":1652914720000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.4103\/1450-1147.181149"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2017,1]]},"references-count":9,"journal-issue":{"issue":"01","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,18]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2017,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4103\/1450-1147.181149","archive":["Portico","CLOCKSS"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1450-1147","1607-3312"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1450-1147","type":"print"},{"value":"1607-3312","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2017,1]]}}}
