Reliability and Validation of the WB-MRI Radiological Score in CRMO
Italy15 participantsStarted 2027-01-01
Plain-language summary
This study evaluates the inter-observer reliability of a standardized WB-MRI scoring system for CRMO and its consistency with the PedCNO clinical score. It also investigates whether changes in the radiologic score mirror therapeutic response, supporting a more objective clinical-radiological disease assessment.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Patients with a diagnosis of CRMO according to the international Bristol clinical and radiologic criteria, followed at the Pediatric Rheumatology Clinic of the Pediatric Unit, IRCCS AOU Bologna, Sant'Orsola Hospital;
* Age under 18 years at the time of CRMO diagnosis;
* At least one WB-MRI performed as part of routine clinical follow-up between January 2015 and the start date of the study;
* Availability of complete clinical documentation (including reports, radiologic images, and clinical information) sufficient to apply both the WB-MRI score and the PedCNO score;
* Obtain informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria:
\- Alternative diagnoses accounting for the bone lesions (e.g., infections, neoplasms).
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
To assess the inter-observer reliability and reproducibility of the WB-MRI radiologic scoring system for CRMO lesions, applied independently and in a blinded manner by at least two pediatric radiologists for each WB-MRI performed in patients in with CRMO
Timeframe: at baseline
