A 13-year-old boy was suspected of pericarditis after receiving a second booster dose of bivalent mRNA COVID-19 vaccine. The F-18-FDG PET/CT successfully revealed the simultaneous presence of vaccine-related axillary lymphadenopathy and pericarditis without interference from physiological myocardial uptake, after the patient underwent specific preparation with a carbohydrate-free, high-fat diet.
