Numerous authors have described the radiographic findings associated with osteomyelitis. Knowledge of these findings and their presentation radiographically may make diagnosis of this pathology quite simple. The challenge comes not in diagnosing osteomyelitis based on gross radiographic evidence; by this time, the disease has significantly progressed. The challenge is to be able to recognize early, subtle changes, and, in conjunction with clinical findings, to diagnose and treat the disease before classic radiographic evidence is demonstrated.
许多作者都描述过与骨髓炎相关的影像学表现。了解这些表现及其影像学特征可能会使这种病理状况的诊断变得相当简单。挑战并不在于根据明显的影像学证据诊断骨髓炎；到那时，疾病已经显著进展。挑战在于能够识别早期细微变化，并结合临床发现，在出现典型影像学证据之前诊断和治疗该疾病。
