Let \mathcal M=⟨ K;O⟩ be a real closed valued field and let k be its residue field. We prove that every interpretable field in \mathcal M is definably isomorphic to either K, K(√(-1)), k, or k(√(-1)). The same result holds when K is a model of T, for T an o-minimal power bounded expansion of a real closed field, and O is a T-convex subring. The proof is direct and does not make use of known results about elimination of imaginaries in valued fields.
