Various Spectrum of MRI Findings in Articular and Para-articular Tuberculosis: Pictorial Assay.

Hiten Panchal1, Priyanka Chiripal2.   

Abstract

Tuberculosis continues to be a health-related issue in India. Musculoskeletal tuberculosis is noted to occur dramatically as isolates, primarily accounting for large numbers of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis since early diagnosis is always a priority; with good prognosis, it is a curable disease. Delayed treatment is associated with severe morbidity. Musculoskeletal tuberculosis accounts for a large number of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis. In this article, we describe various articular and para-articular MRI spectrum findings that are seen in patients with tuberculosis. MRI is the perfect modality to study the extent of involvement and its related complications.
