title: MR features of soft-tissue abnormalities due to acute marrow infarction in five children with sickle cell disease.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The purpose of this investigation was to illustrate a variety of soft-tissue abnormalities on MR imaging encountered in connection with acute marrow infarction in children with sickle cell disease.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Extraosseous abnormalities on MR imaging preclude differentiation of acute marrow infarction from osteomyelitis in children with sickle cell disease.
