Patient no. 17, male, 28 years old. Anteroposterior (a) and lateral (b) radiograph demonstrated bone destruction and hyperplasia in the C3–4 level (yellow arrow). CT (c) and MRI (enhanced T1W/FS and T2W sequence) (d, e) of the cervical spine showed a 20.0-mm lesion on the right transverse processes and laminae of C3–4, a typical osteogenic feature of OB (orange arrow). Planar bone scan displayed high uptake around C3–4 cervical vertebral body (g), whereas SPECT/CT  (f) and 3D reconstruction images showed more details on the lesion and provided more information for orthopedist (red arrow)
