Abstract

Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head is a devastating disease in young adults. Magnetic resonance imaging is considered the most sensitive and specific technique in the diagnosis of this condition. The authors present an interesting image of bilateral AVN of the femoral heads diagnosed on F-fluoride positron emission tomography/computed tomography.
