So sorry : (, did not want to scare you Phil and I am almost sure that in your case it is just a "wrong blip" on a radar ! Yes, bones can have some uptake specially when there is some old scar tissue or inflammation present. And it is just as you said easily zapped out - just local R to that spot and it will be gone. But I am sure it is nothing. I was reading about SUV uptake just this morning. It says if is below 2 or around it is most probably benign. I just wanted to suggest that if it is making you nervous to perhaps ask for one more pair of eyes to look at it.
