%X Objectives: Extra Pulmonary Tuberculosis (EPTB) presents with atypical symptoms and heterogeneous clinical features. Management of EPTB including diagnosis, localization, extension and monitoring treatment response of active disease is quite challenging. Moreover, localization of active disease, differentiation between active and latent disease by conventional methods is troublesome. So this study was done to evaluate the metabolic activity of active disease by 18F Flurodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET-CT in diagnosed cases of EPTB patients
