Cartilage imaging in adults has been a rich area of research in which MR T2 and T1rho mapping provide complementary information regarding the extracellular matrix, including collagen fibers and glycosaminoglycans, respectively. However, in the pediatric population, there remains a need to obtain normative data for these variables during skeletal maturation.

The purpose of this study is to provide complementary information regarding cartilage during skeletal maturation with T2 and T1rho maps. Read More

The majority of cartilaginous bone lesions in children are benign, and many have a characteristic radiographic appearance, which is often diagnostic. This educational exhibit will review common (e.g., osteochondromas, enchondromas, including discussions of osteochondromatosis and enchondromatoses), less common (e.g., chondroblastoma), and rare (e.g., Trevor's disease, bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferations, chondromyxoid fibroma, chondrosarcoma) cartilaginous lesions which affect the pediatric skeleton with a focus on the imaging appearance of these lesions. Furthermore, this exhibit will strive to help the pediatric radiologist distinguish between these entities, when feasible, to ensure the appropriate use of additional tools and resources, including follow-up imaging and biopsy.

For the skeletal age determination, the hand radiography is most widely used and the Risser index has been well described for patients with scoliosis. Our purpose of this study is to assess patterns of skeletal maturation of the triradiate cartilage (TRC) and the posterior acetabular wall (PA) which can be easily assessed on body CT. Read More
