Fig. 5A 62-year-old woman with breast cancer. Typical behavior of osteonecrotic lesion on T1 (A), STIR (B), and contrast-enhanced T1 (C) sequences. Hypointense lesion with bright signal in STIR and contrast enhancement in quadrants 1 and 2 are seen. Arrows show focal lesions of osteonecrosis in quadrant 1 (black arrows) and quadrant 2 (white arrows).
