Abstract

Calcific tendinopathy is a common condition of the shoulder caused by the inflammation and deposition of hydroxyapatite crystals in the rotator cuff tendons. PET tracers capturing the molecular changes associated with the crystal deposition of calcific tendinopathy remain underinvestigated. In this report, we present calcified tendinopathy of the infraspinatus tendon demonstrating both ¹⁸F-NaF and ¹⁸F-FDG focal uptake in a 61-year-old woman.
