First experiences with the new apparatus "Pädiatrix" in pediatric radiology are reported. The apparatus is especially constructed for babies and children. X-ray pictures can be taken close-up and in distance with the tube above the table. Fluoroscopy can be performed with image intensivier. X-ray pictures with Bucky-diaphragm by the technique of middle and normal size and oblique or horizontal direction are to be made. Tomography and zonography can be done. The apparatus has proven useful for clinical radiological diagnostics after three years of experience.

Computerized assessment of neuropsychological functioning in pediatric brain tumor patients.
J Neurooncol
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, MacKay Memorial Hospital, No. 92, Sec. 2, Zhongshan N. Rd, Taipei, 10449, Taiwan.
Purpose: Advances in multidisciplinary treatment of childhood brain tumors have significantly prolonged survival and reduced treatment-related complications. This makes the accessibility of digital neurocognitive assessment an important issue in the post-pandemic era.
Methods: Twenty pediatric brain tumor patients were recruited between August 2023 and August 2024, and a total of eight standardized Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery (CANTAB) tests targeting executive function, memory, and attention were applied on a digital system.
Synthetic MR: Clinical applications in neuroradiology.
Neuroradiology
January 2025
Department of Imaging Sciences and Interventional Radiology, Sree Chitra Tirunal Institute for Medical Sciences and Technology, Thiruvananthapuram, 695011, Kerala, India.
Purpose: Synthetic MR is a quantitative MRI method that measures tissue relaxation times and generates multiple contrast-weighted images using suitable algorithms. The present article principally discusses the multiple dynamic multiple echo (MDME) technique of synthetic MR and briefly describes other quantitative MR sequences.
Methods: Using illustrative cases, various applications of the MDME sequence in neuroradiology are explained.
Radiation dose proportions of localizer radiograph and bolus tracking in low-dose pediatric cardiothoracic computed tomography.
Pediatr Radiol
January 2025
Department of Gastroenterology, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, MA, USA.
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).

MRI features of hepatocellular adenomas in children: clinical and radiological review.
Pediatr Radiol
January 2025
Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology Department, Hospital for Sick Children, 555 University Ave, Toronto M5G 1X8, Toronto, Canada.
Background: Hepatocellular adenomas (HCAs) are rare, benign hepatic tumors in children, with limited imaging data available for pediatric cases.
Objective: To describe the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinical features of histologically proven HCAs in children.
Materials And Methods: Single-center retrospective review of pathology-proven HCA from January 2004 to February 2024.
