Abstract
The radiological features of osteoarticular tuberculosis are quite variable. The rareness of AIDS-associated tuberculosis and relatively mild course and imaging features may be the common feature of osteoarticular tuberculosis in Japan. Imaging features are generally similar to other low-grade infections, and liberal (often incomplete) use of antibiotics for the treatment of pyogenic infection may also make the differential diagnosis difficult on many occasions.
