Pediatric Musculoskeletal Radiology

Pediatric Musculoskeletal Radiology is a specialized area of radiology focused on imaging the bones, joints, and muscles in children. Using techniques like X-rays, MRIs, and ultrasounds, radiologists can diagnose conditions such as fractures, infections, and developmental issues. Children’s bones are different from adults' because they are still growing, which requires a unique approach to interpretation. This field is vital for ensuring proper treatment and monitoring of musculoskeletal conditions in young patients, ultimately supporting their healthy growth and development.
