From: Prevalence and prognostic value of increased uptake in bone SPECT/CT in asymptomatic wrists

Fig. 4

Thirty-four year old male patient 4 years after reconstruction of a posttraumatic scaphoid non-union with persisting pain and increased uptake in the scaphoid (b short arrow; c long arrow) as well as low grade uptake in all carpal bones in late phase planar images (b) and SPECT/CT (c). No uptake in early phase images (a). The contralateral asymptomatic wrist shows moderate increased uptake in late phase (b long arrow) and SPECT/CT (d long arrow) corresponding to a non-union of the ulnar styloid process with degenerative changes on CT. Follow-up clinical investigation 12 months later revealed that the asymptomatic wrist was stable and the range of movement normal. The ulnar styloid fragment was palpable but indolent
