This is surrounded by hypo-intense rim on T1 & T2W images. There is linear subchondral fracture / fissuring in both femoral heads well appreciated on FAT SAT images. Slight contour deformity with mild collapse/flattening is present bilaterally. These findings are representing bilateral avascular necrosis of the hip.
