Visual examination of 18F-FDG-PET/CT scan and HRCT of one IIM-ILD patients who developed RP-ILD. A to C. Prominently elevated FDG uptake in bilateral lungs of one IIM-ILD patient who later developed RP-ILD. D to F and G to I. Prominently elevated FDG uptake in bilateral lungs of one IIM-ILD patient indicated future RP-ILD in one week (where the arrow pointed). FDG: Fluorodeoxyglucose; HRCT: High resolution CT; IIM-ILD: Idiopathic-inflammatory-myopathy-related interstitial lung disease; RP-ILD: Rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease
