The rate of injury in these patients is presently unknown. This is important because abuse allegations are brought for both altruistic and other reasons. This study compares the use of skeletal survey and neuroimaging in well-appearing and clearly injured children reported to be victims of witnessed child abuse.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Retrospectively planned secondary analysis of the Examination of Siblings to Recognize Abuse cohort of children referred to a child abuse pediatrician with concerns for physical abuse. Children were selected who presented to a medical provider with a history of witnessed child abuse including shaking. Rates of radiographically evident injuries are noted among children with and without injuries noted on physical examination.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Among 2890 children evaluated by a child abuse pediatrician, 90 children (3.1%) presented with a history of witnessed abuse. Among these, 51 children (57%) had injuries noted on physical examination; 9 (29%) of 31 skeletal surveys and 9 (35%) of 26 neuroimaging studies revealed injuries. Of 39 children (43%) with witnessed abuse and normal examination, 3 (10%) of 30 skeletal surveys and 2 (8%) of 25 neuroimaging studies revealed an injury.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>A significant minority of children evaluated for allegations of witnessed abuse will have occult injuries identified radiographically. Absence of injury on examination should not deter physicians from obtaining otherwise indicated skeletal surveys and neuroimaging in children reported to have experienced witnessed abuse.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1097\/pec.0000000000001096","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,3,14]],"date-time":"2017-03-14T15:47:10Z","timestamp":1489506430000},"page":"245-248","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Use of Imaging in Children With Witnessed Physical Abuse"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"35","author":[{"given":"John D.","family":"Melville","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Child Abuse Pediatrics, Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston, SC;"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Stephanie K.","family":"Hertz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Akron Children's Hospital,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"R.
