Figure 4. Transaxial scans of computed tomography (CT) and fused 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/ CT (PET/CT) performed in June 2020 (left column; images A, C) and in December 2020 (right column; images B, D). Yellow arrows indicate sclerotic lesions in the body of the L3 vertebra, with no FDG uptake. The lesions did not progress in the time between the 2 scans. Imaging was conducted using the Advantage Workstation for Diagnostic Imaging (GE; AW4.6_05.003_SLED_11; GIMP 2.10 General Public License).
