IMAGING OF COMMON ORTHOPAEDIC PAIN

DISCLOSURES

• I have nothing to disclose.

COMMON ORTHOPAEDIC PAIN

• Back

• Shoulder

• Knee

3/18/2016

BACK PAIN

• Most common reasons to seek physician care (2nd only to upper

respiratory infections)

• Single leading cause of disability

• Most cases are musculoskeletal/mechanical

• Minority are caused by serious conditions such as inflammatory

arthritis, infection, fracture or neoplasm

• $50 billion/year

• Experts estimate 80% of population experiences a back problem

in our lifetime

CONCLUSIONS

• Knowledge of imaging modalities allows the clinician to select the best study

for their patient

• Radiographs remain important for initial assessment of MSK pain evaluating

primarily the bone

• MRI is most sensitive for assessment of the soft tissue structures

• Imaging findings help guide treatment
