Abstract:
:The location of invasive infections is difficult to detect in infants, in part due to their inability to localize signs and symptoms. However, identifying the location often significantly alters clinical management by extending the duration of antibiotic therapy or revealing a source requiring surgical intervention. Compared with commonly used first-line imaging techniques such as radiographs and ultrasounds, MRI has higher sensitivity for identifying invasive infections and allows for simultaneous evaluation of multiple foci. We present 2 cases in which whole-body screening MRI was used in neonates to identify invasive sources of infection, including one in which traditional modalities failed to detect multiple clinically significant sources. We posit that whole-body screening MRI merits consideration as a potential first-line imaging method when investigating invasive infections in infants.
