The imaging approach to inflammatory connective tissue diseases in childhood has not changed dramatically over the last decade, with radiographs still the leading method for bony pathology assessment, disease monitoring, and evaluation of growth disturbances. Ultrasonography is commonly used for early detection of alterations within the intra- and periarticular soft tissues, assessing their advancement and also disease monitoring. It offers several advantages in young patients including nonionizing radiation exposure, short examination time, and high resolution, allowing a detailed evaluation of the musculoskeletal system for the features of arthritis, tenosynovitis, enthesitis, bursitis, myositis, as well as pathologies of the skin, subdermis, vessels, and fasciae. In this pictorial essay we discuss radiographic and ultrasound inflammatory features of autoimmune pediatric inflammatory arthropathies: juvenile idiopathic arthritis, lupus erythematosus, juvenile scleroderma, juvenile dermatomyositis and polymyositis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0041-1726014","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,5,21]],"date-time":"2021-05-21T22:31:18Z","timestamp":1621636278000},"page":"068-081","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Conventional Radiography and Ultrasound Imaging of Rheumatic Diseases Affecting the Pediatric Population"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"25","author":[{"given":"Grzegorz","family":"Praco\u0144","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, National Institute of Geriatrics, Rheumatology and Rehabilitation, Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maria Pilar","family":"Aparisi G\u00f3mez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Auckland City Hospital, Auckland, New Zealand"},{"name":"Department of Radiology, Hospital Vithas Nueve de Octubre, Valencia, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Paolo","family":"Simoni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"\u201cReine Fabiola\u201d Children's University Hospital, Paediatric Imaging Department, Bruxelles, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Piotr","family":"Gietka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinics of Pediatric Rheumatology, National Institute of Geriatrics, Rheumatology and Rehabilitation, Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Iwona","family":"Sudo\u0142-Szopi\u0144ska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, National Institute of Geriatrics, Rheumatology and Rehabilitation, Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,5,21]]},"reference":[{"issue":"02","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"207","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0038-1639469","article-title":"SAPHO and CRMO: the value of imaging","volume":"22","author":"A G Jurik","year":"2018","journal-title":"Semin Musculoskelet Radiol"},{"issue":"80","key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e36","DOI":"10.15557\/JoU.2020.0007","article-title":"Imaging in dermatomyositis in adults and children","volume":"20","author":"I Sudo\u0142-Szopi\u0144ska","year":"2020","journal-title":"J Ultrason"},{"issue":"77","key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"152","DOI":"10.15557\/JoU.2019.0022","article-title":"Juvenile spondyloarthritis and chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis overlap syndrome in a 16-year-old adolescent.
