The diagnosis of the battered child syndrome is the first and most important step for adequate therapy and prevention. The recognition of this entity by the radiologist is possible because of the high frequency of skeletal lesions. Osteoepiphyseolysis with fragmentation of the edges and periosteal calicifications are characteristic for the roentgenographic pattern of the battered child syndrome. In addition to the Roentgen diagnosis total body bone scans should be performed because the diagnostic accuracy will improve, the lesions will be detected earlier, and the radiation dose can be decreases in numerous children.
受虐儿童综合征的诊断是进行充分治疗和预防的首要且最重要的步骤。由于骨骼病变的高发率，放射科医生有可能识别出这一病症。边缘碎裂的骨骺溶解和骨膜钙化是受虐儿童综合征X线表现的特征。除了X线诊断外，还应进行全身骨扫描，因为这样可以提高诊断准确性，更早地发现病变，并且可以减少众多儿童的辐射剂量。
