Abstract
Technically advanced imaging modalities, in particular cross-sectional techniques, have revolutionized the evaluation of pathologic processes involving the joints of infants and children. Imaging strategies must be based upon a thorough understanding of the conditions affecting the young patient. Sedation and limitation of radiation exposure are special considerations in pediatrics. The information provided by these techniques is often central to treatment decisions, and thus, these challenging procedures demand an educated and diligent approach.
