Figure 1. (a) Coronal and (b) sagittal T2 weighted images and (c) sagittal T1 weighted image of the normal sternum. The manubrium, body and xiphoid process are clearly visualized. The coronal image is in a plane parallel to the body of the sternum. (d) Coronal T2 image in a plane parallel to the manubrium depicting the sternoclavicular joints (SCJs). On the coronal oblique images, the costochondral and chondrosternal junctions are well seen (a,d). The SCJs with the articular surfaces, covering fibrocartilage and articular disc are well depicted (d,e).
