In this paper the application of ultrasonography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and bone scintigraphy in the diagnosis of orthopedic diseases is discussed. Because of the advances in the diagnosis made possible by these investigations, diagnosis is often made earlier with the consequence that therapeutic modalities can be used in a better way. As a result, late complications of orthopedic diseases can be influenced in a positive way.
