Pediatric Neuroradiology

Pediatric neuroradiology is a specialized area within pediatric radiology that focuses on using imaging techniques, like X-rays, MRI, and CT scans, to diagnose and monitor conditions affecting the nervous system in children. This includes brain, spine, and nerves. Radiologists who specialize in this field are trained to recognize the unique aspects of children's brains and bodies, helping to identify issues such as tumors, congenital malformations, and injuries. Their work plays a crucial role in ensuring timely and accurate diagnosis, which is essential for effective treatment planning in young patients.
