Abstract: | This research study was designed to investigate the role of various imaging modalities suitable to detect N.A.I. The results obtained indicate that the skeletal survey is the commonest examination performed to detect non-accidental fractures (Nimkin and Kleinman, 1997). Also, other imaging modalities such as RNI, MRI, cr and U f S may help in the diagnosis of N .A. I. Thus it has been found through previous reviewed studies that investigations carried out by various radiological imaging modalities for non-accidental causes are justifiable and necessary. On the basis of the findings, recommendations are proposed on how various imaging modalities may be utilised to achieve the greatest benefits to the child. |
