EOS<sup>TM</sup> is a biplanar radiographic imaging system that can simultaneously acquire whole-body frontal and lateral standing radiographs with moving x-ray tubes and detectors. EOS has been shown to reduce radiation exposure and study time in comparison to standard digital radiography. While it has primarily found utility in evaluation of scoliosis, there has been limited study of EOS in performing pediatric skeletal surveys, which can be time-consuming and challenging given the age of the patient and the large number of images required. This study evaluates how implementing EOS in combination with digital radiography (DR) can reduce the number of images acquired and improve patient/family experience.
