Imaging of musculoskeletal and spinal infections in AIDS

Radiologic Clinics of North America
N J Bureau, E Cardinal

Abstract

The diagnosis of common and opportunistic infections in patients with HIV begins with clinical suspicion and involves relatively standard methodology. Musculoskeletal infection is sometimes the first manifestation of an HIV infection. In patients with HIV, the infections tend to be more advanced at presentation, occur in unusual sites, are caused by a wider spectrum of pathogens, and tend to show an inadequate or delayed response to therapy. The index of suspicion for musculoskeletal infections should be high when reviewing imaging studies of patients with HIV.
