Overview

Spine x-ray, CT o MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of focal brucellosis infection. Findings of Pedro Pons sign can be suggestive of brucellosis.[1]

Other diagnostic studies

  • Spine x-ray, CT, MRI and scintigraphy may be helpful in the diagnosis of focal brucellosis infection, such as:
    • Brucellic spondylitis:
      • Pedro Pons sign:
        • Preferential erosion of the anterosuperior corner of lumbar vertebrae
      • Osteophytosis are suspicious of brucellic spondylitis
    • Sacroiliitis
    • Bursitis
    • Osteomyelitis
    • Meningitis[1][2]
