Use of the EOS 2D/3D Imaging System for the Evaluation of Calcinosis in Juvenile Dermatomyositis

Key Points

• The study aims to compare EOS imaging with conventional radiography for evaluating calcinosis in juvenile dermatomyositis.
• Compared EOS imaging with traditional radiography.
• Focused on calcinosis in the trunk and lower extremities.
• Developed positioning protocols for enhanced detection.
• EOS imaging shows lower radiation exposure compared to conventional methods.
• Rapid image acquisition improves evaluation speed.
• Broader anatomic coverage aids in assessment of upper-extremity disease.
