18F-FDG PET/CT is an effective technique for diagnosing SIF. A small fracture line in the anterior sacrum and diffuse or linear areas of high density or metabolism parallel to the sacroiliac joint were the characteristic features of SIF. The main changes in SIF were increases in the bone density and high-density range and decreases in the FDG uptake intensity and hypermetabolism range.
