Title: | Not just a bump on the head: ultrasound as first-line imaging in a boy with Pott's puffy tumour | Authors: | Connor, P. Reddan, T. |
Issue Date: | 2018 | Source: | 65, (1), 2018, p. 71-73 | Pages: | 71-73 | Journal: | Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences | Abstract: | While computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have established roles in evaluating Pott's puffy tumour, ultrasound can play a valuable role in identifying the condition, particularly in children. We present the case of a boy with a fluctuant forehead lump and headaches, where ultrasound was the first-line imaging modality and expedited further investigations.L6211991882018-03-15 | DOI: | 10.1002/jmrs.251 | Resources: | https://www.embase.com/search/results?subaction=viewrecord&id=L621199188&from=exporthttp://dx.doi.org/10.1002/jmrs.251 | | Keywords: | child;clinical article;differential diagnosis;endoscopic sinus surgery;erythrocyte sedimentation rate;fracture;frontal sinusitis;headache;hematoma;human;antibiotic agent;osteomyelitis;polyp;preschool child;priority journal;ultrasound;Aplio 500;real time ultrasound scannerultrasound transducer;male;C reactive protein;article;case report | Type: | Article |
