Childhood osteomyelitis: imaging characteristics
Tóm tắt
The purpose of this review is to illustrate the imaging findings of childhood osteomyelitis. The diagnosis of childhood osteomyelitis can be challenging. Clinical presentation and laboratory results can differ and are relatively unreliable. To date, its role in the assessment of treatment efficacy is not yet clear. This review article provides an overview of the different imaging modalities and imaging characteristics of childhood osteomyelitis. Levels of evidence for different modalities are presented. Paediatric radiology plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis of childhood osteomyelitis and can also be used to guide therapy and intervention. Although imaging is essential in the diagnostic process, cooperation between the physician and radiologist remains the cornerstone in accurately diagnosing childhood osteomyelitis. • Imaging plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis of childhood osteomyelitis. • Cooperation between the clinician and radiologist is a very important aspect of making the diagnosis. • The initial imaging modality in childhood osteomyelitis is conventional imaging. • Normal conventional imaging does not exclude osteomyelitis.
