    Blood-Pool SPECT/CT in Chronic Ankle TendinopathyWe report 2 cases where blood-pool SPECT/CT had a high added value compared with standard 3-phase bone scintigraphy with only delayed SPECT/CT for the etiological diagnosis of painful ankles. Two men, aged 48 and 62 years, were referred for suspicions of medial and lateral malleoli stress fractures, respectively. Although standard planar blood-pool imaging and delayed SPECT/CT were inconclusive, blood-pool SPECT/CT showed markedly increased uptake...
