The orthopedists' perspective: bone tumors, scoliosis, and trauma.
Although a detailed, comprehensive look at pediatric orthopedists' use of imaging is beyond the scope of this article, we offer an orthopedist's perspective of the role imaging plays in the care of children with tumors, scoliosis, and trauma. Given the growing, dynamic state of a child's skeleton, the long-term consequences of injury must always be considered.
