Pulmonary manifestations of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are well described in adults but appear less frequent and less systematically characterized in pediatrics. We aimed to describe the spectrum and prevalence of lung imaging findings in pediatric and young adult patients with IBD and to explore whether available pulmonary function tests (PFTs) contextualize imaging abnormalities Read More

Health system integration presents challenges for radiology departments, especially in standardizing imaging protocols across new affiliate sites. In pediatric radiology, these challenges are amplified when adult-focused centers begin serving children, as pediatric imaging often requires protocol modifications. Per ACR-SPR-SSR guidelines, pediatric dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) should include lumbar spine and total body images, which provide a more accurate measurement of bone mineral density in children than the standard adult DXA protocol. In our integrated health system, radiologists noted inconsistent use of the pediatric DXA protocol at new affiliate sites. This quality improvement (QI) study evaluated adherence to pediatric DXA protocols across imaging sites to inform targeted interventions to improve national guideline compliance. Read More

To evaluate the usability, workflow impact, and communication effectiveness of an asynchronous electronic consultation (e-Consult) platform implemented within pediatric radiology department. The platform was assessed from the perspectives of both pediatric care providers and radiologists following its integration at a tertiary academic medical center. Read More

Computed tomography (CT) is widely used in pediatric thoracic imaging but involves ionizing radiation. Zero Echo Time (ZTE) MRI enables silent, free-breathing, non-contrast imaging of short-T2 tissues like lung and bone. We aimed to optimize a 4D ZTE MRI protocol for pediatric chest imaging and evaluate the impact of deep learning (DL) reconstruction on diagnostic image quality. Read More
