Abstract
INTRODUCTION Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) PET/computed tomography (CT) has proven to be a valuable imaging modality with high diagnostic accuracy for the detection of bone infections. However, the physiological uptake values for F-FDG in the long bones of the lower extremity have not been established yet. This hampers correct interpretation of a F-FDG-PET/CT scan. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to determine the physiological...
