- Abstract
Limb restricted polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) and PAN-type diseases such as isolated vasculitis of skeletal muscle are localised vasculitides affecting the skin, muscles, or peripheral nerves, usually of the lower limbs. These diseases often present with non-specific clinical symptoms and normal laboratory values and electromyograms. The usefulness of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of skeletal muscle has been poorly investigated to date.
