RESUMO
OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this article is to describe imaging findings of common and uncommon musculoskeletal manifestations, posttreatment changes, and complications of pediatric hematologic malignancies. CONCLUSION. Many pediatric patients with leukemia and lymphoma present with or experience musculoskeletal symptoms over the course of the disease. Imaging can depict bone and soft-tissue signs of pediatric hematologic malignancies and plays an important role in the diagnosis of complications and treatment-related changes.

Fetal MR imaging is complementary to obstetric ultrasonography. The additional information provided by in utero MR imaging may alter prenatal, perinatal, or immediate postnatal management. For example, the MR imaging findings may affect the decision to continue the pregnancy, change the mode, timing, or location of delivery, or modify decisions regarding the necessity of immediate postnatal surgery. Finally, the information contributed by MR may permit a better assessment of the risk of recurrent defects in subsequent pregnancies.
