What advancements have been made in pediatric imaging technologies?
Pediatric imaging technologies have seen significant advancements, making diagnostic procedures safer and more effective for children. Low-dose radiation techniques in X-rays and CT scans help minimize exposure while still providing high-quality images. Pediatric MRI machines are designed to be less intimidating and more comfortable, often featuring child-friendly themes and faster scanning times. Ultrasound technology has also improved, offering detailed images without radiation exposure, which is particularly useful in prenatal and neonatal care.
