Fig. 4

In-plane image of the entire rib cage displaying the long (a) and the short (b) axis of each rib. The sclerotic lesion in the 6th rib on the right can clearly be seen in both axes. There are regions with artifacts in the long axis image (a) due to old fractures causing slight kinking of the rib contours (R1, R7, R8, R10, L1 and L8). These regions can be better analyzed in the short axis image (b)
