FDG-PET findings of insufficiency fracture. (A) In 64-year-old woman who had received concurrent chemoradiotherapy for cervical carcinoma with stage IVA 21 months ago, FDG-PET shows diffuse vertical FDG-uptake (SUVmax = 3.8) in left sacral ala. (B) The FDG-uptake is decreased (SUVmax = 2.0) 6 months later. (C) In 49-year-old woman who had received postoperative radiotherapy for cervical carcinoma with stage IIB 12 months ago, FDG-PET/CT images show increased FDG-uptake in both sacral alae (SUVmax = 2.7). FDG-PET, fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography; SUVmax, the maximum of standardized uptake values.
