1. Intense near-circumferential FDG uptake associated with the ascending aorta, particularly anteriorly corresponding to the periphery of the false lumen and extending to just proximal to the origin of brachiocephalic trunk is concerning for infection.
2. Multiple mildly avid pulmonary opacities in bilateral lungs likely inflammatory in this context.
3. Peripheral FDG uptake associated with both knees (including fluid in right suprapatellar bursa) suggestive of inflammatory aetiology.
4. Bilateral pleural effusions.
