Abstract

Ultrasound (US) is widely used in pediatric musculoskeletal pathology at all ages. Although the focus is often on soft tissues, joints and cartilage, the examiner might be confronted with changes in the underlying bone surface that are important to understand and integrate in the diagnosis. This article illustrates the normal US aspects of the cortical bone surface and periosteum, as well as the most common US anomalies seen in infections, trauma and bone tumors in children.
