Study Summary

The purpose: to pilot whole-body MRI scanning in infants who are already getting brain MRI for suspected child abuse Research design: prospective, blinded reading of Whole-Body MRI (WB-MRI) images during the routine care of the hospitalized infant with comparison to routine radiographic skeletal survey images Procedures to be used: whole-body MRI images Risks and potential benefits: no additional risk (the infant will be receiving and MRI of their brain as part of routine care, the additional images will be obtained at the same time without additional sedation); benefits to the infant include the identification of injuries which would have otherwise been missed by routine care importance of knowledge that may reasonably be expected to result: results from this study will potentially influence the use of radiographic skeletal survey and decrease the radiation exposure to infants being evaluated for suspected child abuse.

Primary Outcome

Whole Body MRI images will be read by a masked pediatric radiologist and compared with findings obtained by routine imaging and clinical evaluation
