Metabolic development of necrotic bone in the femoral head following resurfacing arthroplasty: A clinical [(18)F]fluoride-PET study in 11 asymptomatic hips

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: One concern regarding resurfacing arthroplasty is the viability of the diminished femoral head and the postoperative risk of collapse, or a femoral neck fracture.
