[Diagnostic aspects in child abuse].
In connection with diagnostic and treatment of children the paediatrician may also be confronted with suspected by or certainly abused children. In those cases an evidence on necessary legal consequences will be useful. Anamnesis, examination and radiography have traditionally been used to assess the injuries of abused children. Sceletal scintigraphy should be the screening procedure of choice for children with bone injuries suspected or certainly having been abused. Cranial computer tomography is a recent method to detect intracranial lesions and cerebral late effects due to violence in abused children.
