Abstract

This article reviews aspects of arthritis imaging that are specific to children. The pediatric skeleton is unique and responds in characteristic ways to articular inflammation. Epiphyseal and physeal cartilage are affected by joint diseases, and disturbances of growth and maturation are sometimes the cardinal manifestations of arthritis. The target joints of pediatric articular diseases differ considerably from those of diseases in adults. Imaging techniques should be tailored to the children being studied.

摘要

本文综述了儿童特有的关节炎影像学方面的内容。儿童骨骼具有独特性，对关节炎症有其特征性反应。骨骺和骺软骨会受到关节疾病的影响，生长和成熟障碍有时是关节炎的主要表现。儿童关节疾病的靶关节与成人疾病的靶关节有很大差异。成像技术应根据所研究的儿童进行调整。
