Abstract

I have chosen four very different but equally interesting articles from the December issues of Clinical Radiology and European Radiology as the highlights of the recent radiology literature. First of these is on an issue that is routinely faced by radiologists working with MR in Pakistan. Trying to differentiate early vertebral osteomylitis from background changes in degenerative spines. Dunbar et al suggest that this differentiation is difficult. In an endemic area like Pakistan where tuberculosis is rife the rules of the game are very different from western practices, however we continue to use these western practices as gold standards.
