Figure 3a. Images obtained in a 21-year-old woman. (a) Axial CT scan obtained with contiguous 2-mm sections demonstrates a typical 5-mm-diameter calcified nidus (arrow) of osteoid osteoma of the distal femur. (b) Sagittal T1-weighted fat-saturated magnetic resonance image (repetition time, 642 msec; echo time, 12 msec) with contrast enhancement shows localized enhancement and demonstrates the inflammatory reaction (arrow) near the osteoid osteoma (arrowhead). (c) Axial CT scan obtained with the patient in the prone position shows the guide wire being inserted into the nidus (arrow). (d) Postprocedural reformatted two-dimensional sagittal CT image shows complete excision (arrow) of the nidus.
