Fig. 1 —Presence of bone bruise in 80 posttrauma patients until 1
year of follow-up. Gray boxes refer to patients with complete follow-up (i.e.,
bone bruise absent at follow-up, or 1-year follow-up completed). Numbers on
dotted lines represent participants who were transferred from one category to
another.

Fig. 3A —57-year-old woman with gradual resolution of subcortical fracture.
Coronal T2-weighted fat-suppressed images (TR/TE, 12/3,700; fat saturation;
section thickness, 3 mm; field of view, 180 x 135 mm; matrix, 385
x 224) show gradual resolution of bone bruise (subcortical fracture)
over time from baseline (A), to 3-week follow-up (B), and at
9-week follow-up (C).
