Evidence-Based Imaging in Pediatrics Optimizing Imaging in Pediatric Patient Care / [electronic resource] : edited by L. Santiago Medina, Kimberly E. Applegate, C. Craig Blackmore. - XXII, 666p. online resource.
Principles, Methodology, and Radiation Risk -- Principles of Evidence-Based Imaging -- Critically Assessing the Literature:Understanding Error and Bias -- Radiation Risk from Medical Imaging in Children -- Neuroimaging -- Imaging in the Evaluation of Children with Suspected Craniosynostosis -- Sickle Cell Disease and Stroke -- Imaging of Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy in the Full-Term Neonate -- Evidence-Based Neuroimaging for Traumatic Brain Injury in Children -- Imaging of Brain Neoplasm -- Children with Headache: Evidence-Based Role of Neuroimaging -- Pediatric Neuroimaging of Seizures -- Diagnosis and Management of Acute and Chronic Sinusitis in Children -- Imaging of Nonaccidental Head Injury -- Musculoskeletal Imaging -- Evidence-Based Imaging in Non-CNS Nonaccidental Injury -- Imaging of Spine Disorders in Children: Dysraphism and Scoliosis -- Imaging of the Spine for Traumatic and Nontraumatic Etiologies -- Imaging for Early Assessment of Peripheral Joints in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis -- Imaging of Hematogenous Osteomyelitis and Septic Arthritis in Children -- Imaging of Pediatric Bone Tumors: Osteosarcoma and Ewing Sarcoma -- Imaging for Knee and Shoulder Injuries -- Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip -- Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis -- Imaging of Legg-Calvé-Perthes Disease in Children -- Fractures of the Ankle -- Chest Imaging -- Evidence-Based Approach to Imaging of Congenital Heart Disease -- Congenital Disease of the Aortic Arch: Coarctation and Arch Anomalies -- Imaging Evaluation of Mediastinal Masses in Infants and Children -- Imaging of Chest Infections in Children -- Imaging of Asthma in Children -- Abdominal Imaging -- Imaging of Clinically Suspected Malrotation in Children -- Imaging of Infantile Hypertrophic Pyloric Stenosis (IHPS) -- Intussusception in Children: Diagnostic Imaging and Treatment -- Imaging of Appendicitis in Pediatric Patients -- Imaging of Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Children -- Pediatric Abdominal Tumors: Neuroblastoma -- Pediatric Abdominal Tumors: Wilms Tumor -- Imaging of Blunt Trauma to the Pediatric Torso -- Imaging of Nephrolithiasis and Urinary Tract Calculi in Children -- Urinary Tract Infection in Infants and Children -- Imaging of Female Children and Adolescents with Abdominopelvic Pain Caused by Gynecological Pathologies -- Imaging of Boys with an Acute Scrotum: Differentiation of Testicular Torsion from Other Causes -- Prenatal Imaging -- Imaging of Fetal Anomalies.
Evidence-Based Imaging in Pediatrics: Optimizing Imaging in Pediatric Patient Care presents a user friendly guide to the evidence-based science and the merit defining the appropriate use of medical imaging in infants and children. Edited by Drs. Medina, Applegate and Blackmore, this ideal reference gathers contributions by internationally renowned specialists in the field. The book covers the most prevalent conditions and diseases affecting children. Each chapter is framed around important and provocative clinical questions relevant to the daily physician’s practice. Key points and summarized answers are highlighted so the busy clinician can quickly understand the most important evidence-based imaging data. Topics include patient selection, imaging strategies, test performance, cost-effectiveness, radiation safety and applicability. A wealth of illustrations and summary tables reinforces the key evidence. By offering a clear understanding of the science behind the evidence, the book fills a void for pediatricians, radiologists, clinicians, surgeons, residents and others with an interest in medical imaging and a desire to implement an evidence-based approach to optimize pediatric patient care.
