Paediatric Eye Ultrasound
Sonography of the eye is useful in children especially when ophthalmoscopic examination is limited or inconclusive. Most of our requests are from paediatric ophthalmologists that want to further evaluate the eye so as to achieve a more accurate diagnosis. Ultrasound plays an important role allowi...

Elastography in the child. Normal values for different tissues
Ultrasound elastography is a useful non-invasive tool for the diagnosis of liver fibrosis in adults (1). It plays a similar role in children, with some differences in the confounding factors and in the etiological spectrum of the liver disease; however, guidelines and recommendations have not bee...

Fetal and neonatal US - what does the clinician need to know?
The most important consideration in dealing with fetal hydronephrosis is the overall welfare of the mother and the child, then one should consider the outcome for the kidneys and the bladder.
What the Paediatric Urologist needs to know is if and when intervention is needed. While we await resear... -
Renal cystic disease: What's new?
KUB ultrasound is the bread and butter scan of the paediatric ultrasound department. Accurate and consistent measurements of hydronephrosis are important for treatment and interval surveillance of these patients. At present there is a mismatch between the measurements considered normal in the ant...

Can LUS in the DR predict respiratory support?
Lung ultrasound has shown promise as a powerful diagnostic tool in newborns. During birth, the infant must transition from a fluid filled lung that depends on the placenta for oxygenation and the elimination of carbon dioxide to an aerated lung that successfully exchanges gases. Ultrasound examin...

BUCKLED: ultrasound in kids with distal upper limb fractures in the ED
Forearm fractures in children are a common presentation to the Emergency Department. Paediatric distal forearm fractures account for almost a third of all fractures in children, with a significant proportion of these diagnosed as buckle (torus) type fractures. These fractures are unique to childr...
