Fig. 1B 74-year-old woman referred for 18F-FDG PET
evaluation of solitary pulmonary nodule. Although she had no specific
complaints referable to shoulder, DASH score was 12.9. She also had history of
knee and hip arthritis and had undergone hip replacement. Physical examination
of shoulders revealed difficulty in extension of right arm with internal
rotation, slightly weakened lift-off test, and positive Hawkins test. This
constellation of findings was clinically consistent with osteoarthritis.
18F-FDG PET images (A, transaxial; B, coronal; and
C, sagittal) showed diffuse uptake in right shoulder in distribution of
joint capsule.
