Abstract:
One of the most controversial areas of nonaccidental injury is the medical diagnosis of inflicted central nervous system injury and its impact on medical, social, and legal outcomes for children and families. This review addresses the role of the neuroradiologist in the clinical care of the pediatric patient and as an expert medical witness in the area of nonaccidental injury.
