Ultrasound plays an important role in the diagnostic imaging of
infants and children and has indeed become the workhorse for many
conditions. This is attributable both to the avoidance of ionizing
radiation and to the unique features displayed on ultrasound in
children in almost all body areas. In the future the potential of
ultrasound can be expected to increase further owing to new
developments such as ultrasound contrast material, three- or four-
dimensional ultrasound, and ultrasound elastography. This book
systematically covers the use of ultrasound in all organ systems
and throughout childhood. After discussion of the basics, including
physics, artifacts, and procedural details, decision making
regarding the use of ultrasound is elucidated by listing next
imaging steps based on recommended imaging algorithms. The
indications and prerequisites for a particular examination are
documented, and practical tips and tricks are highlighted. The
normal, age-dependent ultrasound findings and typical appearances
in different pathologies are presented in detail and illustrated by
numerous high-quality images. Particular emphasis is placed on
those findings that differ from the adult sonographic appearances.
In addition to the classic pediatric abdominal applications,
detailed consideration is given to neurosonography,
echocardiography, chest ultrasound, musculoskeletal and hip
ultrasound, Doppler sonography, and interventional ultrasound. The
potential role of the most modern techniques in various situations
is explained. Pediatric Ultrasound will prove an invaluable source
of information and an indispensable aid to decision making and
diagnosis for radiology residents, experienced (pediatric)
radiologists, sonographers, pediatricians, pediatric surgeons and
urologists, and all other physicians who deal with children as a
part of their daily practice.
