Purpose or Case Report: Abusive head trauma is associated with high morbidity and mortality. The evidence-based identification, care, and protection of infants and young children who are victims of AHT is critical. A diagnosis of AHT is made after careful consideration of the history provided, constellation of injuries identified, in conjunction with any additional diagnostic evaluation, as appropriate. This multidisciplinary educational module will focus on the evidence-based evaluation of intracranial findings when abusive head trauma (AHT) is a consideration, highlighting the importance of collaboration between child abuse pediatricians (CAPs) and pediatric neuroradiologists.

Framing the discussion with multiple cases, we will (1) describe the varied clinical presentations of abusive head trauma, (2) describe a general approach to the medical evaluation of abnormal intracranial findings when abuse is a concern; (3) present the differential diagnosis including traumatic and medical causes; (4) discuss appropriate imaging evaluation including neuroimaging (brain, spine) and skeletal imaging approaches; (5) report imaging findings found more commonly in AHT; (6) underscore the importance of collaboration between child abuse pediatricians and neuroradiologists; (7) highlight key literature, including the 2018 SPR-supported AHT consensus statement, to reference in practice, and, finally; (8) discuss consideration of language to include in imaging reports when abuse is a concern.

Following completion of the educational module, the learner will be familiar with the medical and imaging evaluations when AHT is considered, be able to describe imaging findings that are more commonly associated with AHT, and be familiar with references from the literature for self-study.
