Fluorine-18-sodium fluoride (F-NaF) PET/CT is a relatively new and high-resolution bone imaging modality. Since the use of F-NaF PET/CT has been increasing, it is important to accurately assess the images and be aware of normal distribution and major artifacts. In this pictorial review article, we will describe the normal uptake patterns of F-NaF in the bone tissues, particularly in complex structures, as well as its physiologic soft tissue distribution and certain artifacts seen on F-NaF PET/CT images.
氟-18-氟化钠(F-NaF)PET/CT是一种相对较新的高分辨率骨成像模态。由于F-NaF PET/CT的使用一直在增加,准确评估图像并了解其正常分布和主要伪影非常重要。在这篇图文综述文章中,我们将描述F-NaF在骨组织中的正常摄取模式,特别是在复杂结构中的摄取模式,以及其在生理软组织中的分布和在F-NaF PET/CT图像上看到的某些伪影。
