Research

Mayo Clinic is part of the International Perthes Study Group, a group of more than 40 pediatric orthopedic surgeons who address questions about Legg-Calve-Perthes disease through a collaborative research program.

One topic of research is an advanced form of magnetic resonance imaging, called perfusion MRI, which can help show how much blood is getting to the femoral head. This information may help assess the severity of the Legg-Calve-Perthes disease and predict how well a child will likely recover from various types of treatments.

Research: It's all about patients

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Joseph Sirven, M.D., Professor of Neurology, Mayo Clinic: Mayo's mission is about the patient. The patient comes first. So the mission and research here is to advance how we can best help the patient, how to make sure the patient comes first in care. So in many ways, it's a cycle. It can start with as simple as an idea worked on in a laboratory, brought to the patient bedside, and if everything goes right — and let's say it's helpful or beneficial — then brought on as a standard approach. And I think that is one of the unique characteristics of Mayo's approach to research — that patient-centeredness — that really helps to put it in its own spotlight.
