摘要
Children with dermatomyositis may have extensive subcutaneous and intermuscular calcium-laden fluid collections referred to as "milk of calcium." The distinctive MR appearance of such collections in an upper extremity of a 16-year-old girl is presented. MR can differentiate these collections from abscesses and guide appropriate therapy.
