Posterior acetabular uptake on F-fluoride positron emission tomography/computed tomography reveals a putative contrecoup region in patients with femoroacetabular impingement

Background and purpose: The pathology of the posterior acetabular lesions, so-called “contrecoup regions”, in femorocacetabular impingement (FAI) has not been elucidated fully. 18 F-fluoride positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) can visualize abnormal uptake caused by impingement...
