Low dose radiation 18F–fluoride PET/CT in the assessment of Unilateral Condylar Hyperplasia of the mandible: preliminary results of a single centre experience

European Journal of Hybrid Imaging, 2018
Background Unilateral condylar hyperplasia (UCH) of the mandible, or Hypercondylia, is a pathological condition that determines an abnormal growth of the affected condyle. Bone SPECT with Tc99m-diphosphonates is a successful tool in the diagnosis of UCH.
