Abstract:

Osteomyelitis is an infection of bone and bone marrow with acute and chronic presentations (1) Early diagnosis and appropriate management are essential to prevent chronic disease and disability. Imaging plays a central role, with MRI being the most sensitive modality for early detection. CT, nuclear medicine, and FDG PET-CT provide complementary information in chronic and complex cases(2). Management requires a multidisciplinary approach combining antimicrobial therapy and surgical intervention.
