Review the clinical presentation, imaging findings, and management of emergencies in children with sickle cell disease (SCD), with attention to the critical role of imaging when differentiating between potential diagnoses and directing appropriate care. This exhibit will explore the multimodality emergency imaging of children with: I. Acute vasoocclusive pain crisis II. Dactylitis III. Infection/sepsis IV. Acute chest syndrome V. Stroke VI. Splenic sequestration VII. Gallbladder disease VIII. Renal nephropathy and infarcts We will emphasize the central role of imaging in identifying acute and life-threatening complications in children with sickle cell disease, as well as the value of radiology in uncovering other pathologic processes that should be considered when children with SCD present to the emergency department.

TEACHING POINTS 1. Inform radiologists of new paradigms of care for patients with Trisomy 18, emphasizing significant management changes over the past decade as well as the expanding indications for patient interventions. 2. Describe imaging findings and diagnoses encountered among patients with Trisomy 18, including CNS, cardiothoracic, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and musculoskeletal abnormalities. 3. Explore the value of patient and family centered care while treating children with Trisomy 18, emphasizing family encounters in the radiology department. TABLE OF CONTENTS/OUTLINE I.
