case_images: Coronal STIR image of chest wall (1a) demonstrating uniform high signal within the intercostal muscle layers between the left 10th and 11th ribs in keeping with oedema (white arrows). Normal appearance of the adjacent ribs with no marrow signal change. Coronal T1 nonfat saturated image of chest wall (1b) demonstrating no evidence of fatty atrophy of the affected intercostal muscles.
