F-18 FDG uptake in the nidus of an osteoid osteoma.
Osteoid osteoma is a common skeletal neoplasm with distinctive histologic abnormalities that consist of a central core of vascular osteoid tissue and a peripheral sclerotic zone. We report a case of intense F-18 FDG uptake in the nidus of cortical osteoid osteoma of the distal metaphysis of the right tibia.
