Abstract

A 16-year-old woman presented with an acute headache on the left side. A head CT scan revealed bone destruction in the skull. Subsequent ¹⁸F-FDG and ¹⁸F-FAPI PET/CT scans were performed within a week. The ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT indicated mild uptake in the regions of bone destruction, whereas the ¹⁸F-FAPI PET/CT displayed significant tracer accumulation. The patient was ultimately diagnosed with fibrous dysplasia.
