Bone (marrow) contusion, or bone bruise or bone marrow edema is an osseous injury which may result from compression of bone structures.
Etiology
Most bone contusions are a result of a direct blow to the bone, traction from a avulsion trauma or compression of adjacent bones.1
Depending on where bone contusion is seen, the underlying trauma mechanism can be identified. Each trauma mechanism has its own pattern of bone contusion.
Radiographic features
MRI
MRI is the modality of choice when investing bone marrow. Bone (marrow) contusion can be seen as follow:
T1: hypointens area of bone marrow that is affected.
T2: hyperintens area of bone marrow that is affected.
