Sagittal MR images of a patient with Kummel's disease: (a) T2-weighted, (b) T1-weighted, and (c) STIR (short TI inversion recovery). Images show anterior compression deformities (solid arrows). The T2-weighted and STIR images show a classic “double line” sign of low-intensity vacuum cleft surrounded by elevated signal from edema (dashed arrow). The T1-weighted image shows the absence of signal within the vertebral body vacuum clefts (dashed arrow).
