AJR:194, April 2010 This article suggests 10 steps that radiologists and radiologic technologists, with the assistance of their medical physicist, can take to obtain good quality CT images while properly managing radiation dose for children undergoing CT. The first six ideally should be completed before performing any on a pediatric patient. final four address unique consideration given each scanned
To determine population-based rates of the use diagnostic imaging procedures with ionizing radiation in children, stratified by age and sex.Retrospective cohort analysis.All settings using radiation.Individuals younger than 18 years, alive, continuously enrolled UnitedHealthcare between January 1, 2005, December 31, 2007, 5 large US health care markets.Number type children.A total 355 088 children were identified; 436 711 performed 150 930 patients (42.5%). The highest older 10 frequent...
To determine if radiology residents who used a structured reporting system (SRS) produced higher quality reports than conventional free-text dictation to report cranial magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in patients suspected of having stroke.The study was approved by an institutional review board and HIPAA compliant; informed consent obtained. This included residents, with 16 the control group 18 intervention group. For phase 1, each subject reviewed same set 25 brain MR cases dictated using...
The International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) has embarked a review and revision of the system that will update 2007 general recommendations in ICRPPublication 103. This is beginning process take several years, involving open transparent engagement with organisations individuals around world. While robust performed well, it must adapt to address changes science society remain fit for purpose. aim this paper encourage discussions which areas might gain greatest benefit from...
The purpose of this study was to compare the diagnostic accuracy graded compression sonography with that helical CT for diagnosis appendicitis in a pediatric and young adult population.Between June 1996 April 1999, 386 patients suspected were examined using sonography, CT, or both: 233 underwent only, 71 82 CT. All sonograms scans prospectively interpreted as showing positive negative findings by one six radiologists. sonographic correlated surgical histopathologic at clinical...
Children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) undergo imaging using ionizing radiation and may be exposed to high cumulative radiation. We hypothesized that children IBD have exposure from medical imaging.An Institutional Review Board (IRB)-approved retrospective chart review 2002-2008 was performed on all patients IBD. Radiographic studies were recorded for each study estimated.A total of 117 (86 Crohn's [CD], 31 ulcerative colitis [UC]) evaluated. The median current 15.1 mSv in CD 7.2 UC...
