The Division of Pediatric Imaging covers general radiography, fluoroscopy, CT, ultrasound, nuclear medicine, bone densitometry, PET/CT, cardiac CT, and MR imaging while the divisions of Interventional Radiology and Neuroradiology additionally provide coverage. The division also provides radiopharmaceutical therapy with I-131 for thyroid disease and I-131 MIBG for neuroblastoma.
The division utilizes the newest imaging technology sized for pediatric patients and utilizes specialized protocols designed to address the specific needs of children, including precise configuration to accurately diagnose clinical questions, minimize radiation exposure, and reduce the need for sedation.
