A 90-year-old woman with severe midback pain. A 90-year-old woman with severe midback pain. Fat-suppressed T2-weighted sagittal MR image (large arrow) shows diffuse marrow edema within the T7 vertebra and mild height loss consistent with an acute osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture. A fracture line (small arrow) extends to the superior endplate. Increased signal intensity is seen within the T6–7 intervertebral disk (arrowhead). This latter abnormality was attributed to possible diskitis in the official radiology report without any consideration given to possible traumatic disk injury in the differential diagnosis. A.O.
