Traumatic bone marrow edema was detected with Dual Energy CT after road traffic accident.

A 35-year-old male patient, complaining of pain in the right knee following a road traffic accident four hours ago, presented himself to the emergency department. Physical examinations revealed no external wounds around the right knee joint. The ordered X-ray examination was negative. Dual Energy CT (DECT) was requested for further evaluation.
