Background: Optimization of localizer radiograph and bolus tracking doses is necessary, as their dose proportion may increase with a decreasing diagnostic scan dose in pediatric cardiothoracic computed tomography (CT).
Objective: To evaluate the radiation dose proportions of the localizer radiograph and bolus tracking in low-dose pediatric cardiothoracic CT.
Materials And Methods: For low-dose pediatric cardiothoracic CT, a posteroanterior localizer radiograph was acquired with 80 kV, and 35 mA or 20 mA in 852 infants (age<1 year).

Pesticides can adversely affect reproduction by causing congenital abnormalities, fetal demise, and infertility. The reproductive toxicity of coragen, a modified ryanodine receptor-targeting insecticide with chlorantraniliprole concentrations of 20%, was examined in male rats. Twenty-one healthy male rats were randomly assigned to one of three groups: the control group, two orally administered with low (500 mg/kg) and high (1000 mg/kg) doses of coragen for 8 weeks.

LUMBAR syndrome is characterized by lower body segmental infantile hemangiomas, urogenital abnormalities/hemangioma ulceration, spinal cord malformations, bony deformities, anorectal malformations/arterial anomalies, and/or renal anomalies. Here we present an infant girl with LUMBAR syndrome who was also discovered to have Müllerian agenesis, defined as absent uterus or nonfunctional uterine remnants. While vaginal and uterine duplications are included among the diagnostic criteria for LUMBAR syndrome, this is the first case of associated Mullerian agenesis.
