Pediatric abdominal CT angiography

Donald P Frush. Pediatr Radiol. 2008 May.

Abstract

Advancing multidetector technology offers opportunities for improved vascular assessment in children. Much of what is available deals with thoracic and central nervous system applications, with very little written about abdominal applications. That said, many of the technical aspects are similar to computed tomography (CT) angiography in these regions and are worthy of reviewing, in addition to those unique considerations for abdominal CT angiography (CTA) in children. Familiarity with appropriate abdominal CTA for pediatric multidetector array CT will provide the same opportunities as CTA in other regions.
