Abstract in brief

  • Diabetes can cause various musculoskeletal issues like muscle ischemia and foot infections, which can be mistaken for other conditions such as infections or inflammation, but imaging features like lack of fever or specific muscle and bone signals help differentiate them.
  • In diabetic foot infections, MRI helps distinguish between ulcers, abscesses, and bone marrow involvement, guiding treatment decisions like surgery or antibiotics by showing viable versus dead tissue.
  • Long-term dialysis in diabetics can lead to spondyloarthropathy, characterized by specific spinal radiograph features such as disc space narrowing and bone erosions, which help differentiate it from infections or degenerative diseases when combined with the patient’s medical history.
