Focal 18F‐Fluoride uptake on blood‐pool phase PET represents regional hyperaemia, while it indicates osteoblastic activity on mineralization phase PET. This study investigates the link between regional hyperaemia and osteoblastic activity in inflammatory and chronic lesions of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) of the sacroiliac joints (SIJ) using dual‐phase 18F‐Fluoride PET/MRI.

Keywords: regional hyperaemia; phase; 18f fluoride; osteoblastic activity
