"MR findings of iliotibial band syndrome include ill-defined signal abnormality within the fatty soft tissues interposed between the iliotibial band and bone. In the knee, the soft tissues lateral to the lateral femoral condyle show low T1 and high T2 signal, in keeping with oedema/fluid. The signal changes commonly extend over or posterior to the lateral femoral epicondyle. In the hip, similar soft tissue changes are present and there may also be tendinopathy or tear of the gluteus medius or minimus tendons. There may also be marrow oedema in the affected bone."
