The purpose of this pictorial assay is to demonstrate the imaging features of the various musculoskeletal manifestations of hemophilia, an X-linked disorder. Depending on the site of recurrent bleeding, musculoskeletal manifestation can be in the form of hemophilic arthropathy and/or soft tissue, intraosseous, or subperiosteal pseudotumors. Radiography, sonography, computed tomography, and especially magnetic resonance imaging help in the evaluation of hemophilic arthropathy and pseudotumors, providing accurate diagnosis, thus avoiding inadvertent procedures and related complications. Treatment includes replacement of clotting factors either continuously or when indicated, radionuclide or open synovectomy in cases of disabling arthropathy.

Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...
