  title = {Contribution of imaging in the diagnosis of three neglected diseases in the Southern Cone: Leishmaniasis, Dengue, and Chikungunya},
  abstract = {<p>Neglected diseases such as leishmaniasis, dengue, and chikungunya pose significant challenges to public health due to their high prevalence and wide geographic distribution in the Southern Cone region. These diseases are transmitted through insect bites, which serve as natural reservoirs. While their imaging findings are not always conclusive, they can play a crucial role in the diagnosis and monitoring. This review provides a concise overview of the clinical manifestations, epidemiological context, and imaging findings associated with these diseases. The primary purpose of this article is to share our experience and offer valuable insights into the use of imaging for the diagnosis and monitoring of patients suspected to have these diseases.</p>
