Bone marrow edema (BME)-like signal associated with focal chondral lesion. a, b T1-weighted (a) and fat-suppressed T2-weighted MR images (b) show BME-like signal intensities similar to those of subchondral insufficiency fractures (SIFs) (asterisks). Here, the BME-like signal intensity is related to a deep focal cartilage defect (arrow in b), evident in the present case
