1. To recognize that tuberculous infections are not limited to the chest 2. To learn the demographics, pathophysiology and clinical presentation of patients with extrapulmonary tuberculosis. 3. To review the spectrum of imaging findings of extrapulmonary tuberculosis through different imaging modalities.

1. Demographics and clinical presentation of extrapulmonary tuberculosis. 2. Radiologic review of the more common manifestations of extrapulmonary tuberculosis through different imaging modalities (CT, PET-CT and MR), including involvement of: a) Central nervous system (meningitis, cerebritis, abscess, tuberculoma, miliary tuberculosis). b) Head and neck (tuberculous lymphadenitis). c) Pericardium. d) Abdomen and pelvis (solid organ involvement, gastrointestinal tract, peritoneal and tuberculous lymphadenitis). e) Male reproductive system (scrotum and testicular), f) Musculoskeletal (spondylodiscitis, osteomyelitis and arthritis). 3.
