At the end of viewing this exhibit the learner should be able to: List several impingement and friction conditions that can be diagnosed in pediatric population by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Describe MRI findings of subspine, ischiofemoral, and talocalcaneal impingement, and iliotibial band friction syndrome and patellar tendon-lateral femoral condyle friction syndrome (superolateral Hoffa fat pad impingement) in children. Explain the importance of becoming familiar with such impingement conditions as they may be encountered on MRI due to biomechanical alterations following corrective or tumor-removal surgery.

The role of MRI in musculoskeletal impingement and friction syndromes Impingement and friction conditions in children that can be diagnosed by MRI Subspine impingement (between anterior inferior iliac spine and proximal femur) Femoral acetabular impingement Ischiofemoral impingement  Patellar tendon-lateral femoral condyle friction syndrome (superolateral Hoffa fat pad impingement)  Iliotibial band friction syndrome  Talocalcaneal impingement  Take home messages
