    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric radiology
    • Medical imaging
    • Diagnostic ultrasound

    Background:

    • Abdominal masses in infants and children require accurate diagnostic methods.
    • Minimally invasive diagnostic approaches are preferred in pediatric care.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the indispensable role of sonography in evaluating pediatric abdominal masses.
    • To demonstrate the diagnostic capabilities of ultrasound in this patient population.

    Main Methods:

    • Meticulous ultrasound scanning techniques were employed.
    • Diagnostic information for accurate diagnosis and follow-up was obtained.

    Main Results:

    • Sonography provided sufficient information for accurate diagnosis in most cases.
  • Ultrasound facilitated effective follow-up evaluation of abdominal masses.

    • Conclusions:

    • Sonography is a key imaging modality for pediatric abdominal masses.
    • Ultrasound can obviate the need for more invasive diagnostic studies in children.
