Quick Overview

Imaging children is challenging and this is especially true for the chest where motion artefacts can play havoc with image quality. Added to these limitations is the immense pressure on the radiologists to answer challenging questions while minimizing the radiation exposure. This effectively implies that every computed tomography (CT) that is performed must be justified not only financially but also in terms of the added radiation burden to the child. To this end, there is an increasing trend towards using ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for imaging the chest. This book is intended to be a comprehensive text on pediatric chest imaging for busy radiologists and paediatricians in interpreting images of the chest in children. This would aid in better management of children with respiratory disorders.
