Chronic Recurrent Multifocal Osteomyelitis (CRMO) is a multifocal auto-inflammatory disease that has gained increased recognition in recent years. Because CRMO is a diagnosis of exclusion, clinical history and imaging findings are important in suggesting a diagnosis. While imaging features of CRMO have been described, other disease processes can have a similar appearance to CRMO. We review some diseases that can mimic the radiographic appearance of CRMO and discuss features that can suggest alternative diagnoses. Read More

Chronic Recurrent Multifocal Osteomyelitis (CRMO) is an auto-inflammatory disease that can affect multiple locations. Whole body MRI is an important tool to help identify subclinical multifocal disease and help monitor disease. As a referral center for CRMO, we have developed a successful CRMO whole body MRI imaging protocol which maximizes diagnostic information while minimizing scanner time. Read More
