Fig. 2From: Diagnostic value of hybrid FDG-PET/MR imaging of chronic osteomyelitisA 33Â year old woman with a 2Â year old soft tissue trauma as a suspected contiguous source of osteomyelitis in the tibia. FDG accumulation was measured in the defect, and the cortex was assessed to be involved based on the PET scan. A lack of signs for oedema and (aside from the pre-existing defect) a seemingly intact cortex on MRI resulted in a consensus PET/MRI diagnosis of soft tissue infection. This was contradicted by the final clinical diagnosis (osteomyelitis) based on microbiology and clinical follow-upBack to article page
