Imaging study reveals frequent axial skeleton bone marrow T2W hyperintensities in healthy children, highlighting the risk of misinterpreting normal variants as multifocal disease.
Non-specific bone marrow T2W hyperintensities in the axial skeleton are frequently detected on whole-body MRI in healthy, asymptomatic children. Awareness of this is important as some findings may resemble clinically silent lesions in children with suspected multifocal skeletal disease.
