Figure 11.

A healthy athlete with no acute injury but evidence of likely chronic left-sided capsular head injury with scar formation/remodelling. (a) Axial large FOV T2FS of both thighs in an athlete with a history of previous injuries to the left rectus femoris. Note the asymmetrical appearance of posterior fibres of the central septum when compared to the normal right side. (b( Axial large FOV T1 sequences in the same athlete in Figure 11a. Note the “tadpole” appearance of the deep fibres of the central septum which appears to correlate location of the posterior capsular head fibres and likely reflects chronic isolated injury with scarring.
