Fig. 1A —21-year-old male athlete with acute traumatic hip injury. Coronal T2-weighted fat-saturated image obtained 2 hours after acute injury does not show any bone marrow edema. Posterior labral tear was noted on axial T2-weighted imaging (not shown).

Fig. 1B —21-year-old male athlete with acute traumatic hip injury. Coronal T2-weighted fat-saturated image obtained 3 months after injury shows focal area of abnormally increased T2 (arrow). Sagittal T1-weighted images (not shown) confirmed anterior location of this signal abnormality.

Fig. 7A —Traumatized swine patella. Sagittal STIR MR images at initial 1-hour scan (A) show edemalike signal intensity (arrow) within patella and at 30-hour scan (B) show increased signal intensity (arrow) within patella.

Fig. 8A —Traumatized swine patella. Sagittal STIR MR image at 1 hour after injury shows subtle subchondral edema (arrow). This area of abnormality increases in signal intensity by 12-hour sagittal image (B) (arrow). In B, there is also extensive high-signal abnormality in patella.
