Figure 3


Fig 3. A, A sagittal fat-saturated T2-weighted image demonstrates increased signal intensity (arrow) in the superior endplate from an acute compression fracture in a different patient.

B, A sagittal spin-echo T1-weighted image in this patient nicely demonstrates the decreased signal intensity in the same superior endplate (arrow).

C, An image from a whole-body bone scintigraphy study demonstrates the classic horizontal radiotracer uptake (arrows) in acute vertebral body compression fractures.
