| Popis: | Chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) is an autoinflammatory bone disorder of unknown etiology with a wide range of clinical manifestations. Since CRMO is a systemic disorder that can affect multiple skeletal sites, whole-body imaging techniques (whole body bone scintigraphy -WBBS- or whole body magnetic risonance -WBMRI-) provide major contribution to the initial diagnostic approach, as well as during follow-up. |
