Abstract
Significant changes can be expected in modern pediatric radiology. New imaging techniques are progressively added to basic modalities like Xrays and ultrasound. This essay summarizes recent advances and technical innovations in pediatric radiology, which are supposed to gain further importance in the future. Thus, CT dose reduction techniques including artificial intelligence as well as advances in the fields of magnetic resonance and molecular imaging are presented. KEY POINTS: · Technical innovations will lead to significant changes in pediatric radiology.. · CT dose reduction is crucial for pediatric patient collectives.. · New MR-techniques will lower the need for sedation and contrast media application.. · Functional MR-imaging might gain further importance in patients with chronic lung disease.. · Molecular imaging enables detection, characterization and quantification of molecular processes in tumors.. CITATION FORMAT: · Staatz G, Daldrup-Link HE, Herrmann J et al. From Xrays to PET/MR, and then? - Future imaging in pediatric radiology. Fortschr Röntgenstr 2019; 191: 357 - 366.
