From Xrays to PET/MR, and then? - Future imaging in pediatric radiology

Abstract

Significant changes can be expected in modern pediatric radiology. New imaging techniques are progressively added to basic modalities like Xrays and ultrasound. This essay summarizes recent advances and technical innovations in pediatric radiology, which are supposed to gain further importance in the future. Thus, CT dose reduction techniques including artificial intelligence as well as advances in the fields of magnetic resonance and molecular imaging are presented.
