Abstract「要旨」HIV感染症治療の進歩にもかかわらず, HIV感染症/AIDSは現在なお, 不治の疾患と考えられている. わが国におけるHIV感染発見の経路の特徴はAIDS発症であり, AIDSの診断基準となる指標疾患の臨床像を熟知しておくことが重要である. 日和見感染症およびAIDS関連悪性腫瘍の中には早期発見, 早期治療により治癒可能な疾患が少なくないことから, その早期局在診断, 鑑別診断, 治療後経過観察に核医学検査の果たす役割は大きい. AIDSの診断基準となる指標疾患とCD4+リンパ球数との関連について概説し, 核医学検査の有用性について述べた. 1997年現在, わが国におけるAIDS(acquired immunodeficiency syndrome)患者は約1,500例, HIV(human immunodeficiency virus)感染者は4,000例を超え, 徐々にではあるが毎年増加傾向にある.

AbstractAcquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is now believed to be an uncurable disease despite significant advances in the area of antiretroviral therapy for patients with HIV infection. In Japan, it is essential to realize AIDS-defining diseases, particularly because it is not until HIV-infected patients are found that AIDS manifestations develop. Some of the opportunistic infections and AIDS-related tumors are curable by earlier diagnosis and treatment, so that nuclear medicine plays the major role in diagnosing and monitoring AIDS-defining diseases. AIDS complications were correlated with CD4+ lymphocyte counts and utility of nuclear medicine in HIV/AIDS was stressed.
