    Notes: Abstract Five patients with pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) of the knee demonstrate the value of preoperative, contrast medium-enhanced CT scanning. The technique is shown to be particularly useful in locating recurrent lesions and in demonstrating that popliteal and posterior calf masses are due to PVNS affecting the knee joint itself. In two of the five patients PVNS was not considered a possibility before the CT scan, and none had evidence of bone erosion on plain radiographs. In none of the patients was the unenhanced CT scan able to demonstrate evidence of decreased radiolucency due to fat within the tumour or density greater than the adjacent skeletal muscle, indicating haemosiderin deposits.

    Notes: Abstract Five cases of septic sacroiliitis diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are presented. Imaging was performed between 2 and 14 days after onset of symptoms and consisted of varying combinations of coronal short tau inversion recovery (STIR), axial T2-weighted spin echo (SE), and coronal and axial pre- and postcontrast T1-weighted SE scans. Abnormalities included demonstration of sacroiliac joint effusions, bone oedema and adjacent inflammation as high signal on STIR and T2-weighted SE scans, and identification of abscesses in two cases as rim-enhancing lesions anterior to the joint on gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted SE scans. The role of MRI and other forms of imaging in septic sacroiliitis is discussed.
