Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the left forearm. a Axial short tau inversion recovery (STIR) demonstrates fracture of the proximal ulna and surrounding soft tissue oedema. Marrow oedema within the proximal radius is also seen. b Coronal T1W image demonstrates the transverse fracture of the proximal ulnar metaphysis (arrow) and low signal changes in the proximal radius at the same level as the ulnar fracture. c Coronal STIR demonstrates the ulnar fracture (arrow) High signal changes in the proximal radius (arrow head) representing bone marrow oedema again demonstrated. No sinister features are seen
