Abstract

A 65-year-old woman with long-standing symptoms of COVID-19 participated in our clinical study on the role of 68 Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT in pulmonary fibrosis. Neither sequela parenchymal changes nor 68 Ga-FAPI-04 uptake was observed in the lungs. However, focal 68 Ga-FAPI-04 uptake was localized in a smoothly circumscribed mass observed in the right frontal region. A meningioma diagnosis was made based on the radiological findings.
