What this Trial Is About
The goal of this national multicenter prospective cohort study is to learn about the added value of 18F-FDG (18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose) PET-CT in invasive fungal disease management. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does the use of 18F-FDG PET-CT allow a better characterization of invasive fungal infection (IFI) (performance) compared to the exclusive use of conventional radiological studies in terms of extension/staging and monitoring of response/follow-up ? 2. Does the systematic and protocolized use of 18F-FDG PET-CT in IFI allow a better management of patients with IFI and increase the prognostic value of the initial evaluation? Participants will undergo systematically a 18F-FDG PET-CT as part of the work-up of their invasive fungal disease. Researchers will compare the performance of 18F-FDG PET-CT with standard management without 18F-FDG PET-CT to see if adds value (diagnostic, prognostic, and changes in management).
