Example of a patient (male, 71 years) with bilateral hip joint replacements (1995 right, 1998 left) and chronic pain in the area of the left hip. Visual analysis was based on planar triple phase bone scan including a flow phase, b blood pool phase and c delayed phase as well as d SPECT Flash 3D maximum intensity projection and e SPECT Flash 3D in combination with CT. Arrows show metal artefacts. The left prosthesis stem was considered loose by visual assessment
