Genitourinary imaging in children has evolved significantly with new technologies. Further research is needed to determine the most effective imaging methods for hydronephrosis and urinary tract infections (UTI).

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Radiology
  • Medical Imaging Technology

Background:

  • Genitourinary imaging in children has advanced considerably over the last three decades.
  • Technological progress in sonography, CT scanning, and MR imaging has driven these changes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the evolution of pediatric genitourinary imaging techniques.
  • To highlight the ongoing controversies and need for outcomes analysis in imaging protocols for pediatric hydronephrosis and urinary tract infections (UTI).

Main Methods:

  • Review of advancements in sonography, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging relevant to pediatric genitourinary conditions.
  • Discussion of current imaging sequences used for diagnosing hydronephrosis and UTI in children.

Main Results:
