Ossification is uncommon, generally asymptomatic, and often incidentally identified in imaging studies. We report on a 54-year-old man who participated as a healthy volunteer in a clinical trial using PET imaging to investigate neuroinflammation. An incidental ossified lesion in the anterior falx cerebri was revealed by MRI. CT scan showed a small hypodense center in the lesion, probably corresponding to bone marrow. The PET scans using 18 F-SF51, 11 C-PS13, and 11 C-MC1 showed increased uptake within this lesion, which was probably related to bone marrow activity within the ossification.
