    Abstract

    The authors have intentionally included some confusing examples to demonstrate that the imaging findings of benign and malignant pediatric bone lesions are not always pathognomonic. The radiologist's role is to recognize malignant bone lesions and encourage the prompt referral of these patients to an appropriate institution for biopsy and treatment. The radiologist must also be able to identify benign lesions and help determine whether these lesions require biopsy and intervention or simply observation.
