Collapse-related bone changes at multidetector CT in ARCO 1-2 osteonecrotic femoral heads: correlation with clinical and MRI data.

• Ninety-eight to one hundred percent of collapsed and 26-40% of non-collapsed osteonecrotic femoral heads presented at least one collapse-related bone change at CT (cortical or trabecular bone interruption, trabecular bone impaction, or resorption). • There was no significant difference in age, sex, pain, functional impairment, size of lesion, or frequency of marrow edema on MRI between non-collapsed hips with or without collapse-related bone changes at CT. • The significance of collapse-related bone changes at CT should be further assessed.
