Current state of radiomics in pediatric neuro-oncology practice: a systematic review
ConclusionThe current state of radiomics in pediatric neuro-oncology is promising, in terms of distinguishing between tumor types; however, its utility in response assessment requires further evaluation which, given the relatively low number of pediatric tumors, calls for multicenter collaboration.Graphical abstract (Source: Pediatric Radiology)

Can radiomics be used to detect hypoxic –ischemic encephalopathy in neonates without magnetic resonance imaging abnormalities?
ConclusionsHIE can be detected in patients without MRI abnormalities using an MRI-based radiomics model. The SWI model performed better than the other models.Graphical Abstract (Source: Pediatric Radiology)

Hippocampal rotation is associated with ventricular atrial size
ConclusionLateral ventricular atrial diameter and incomplete hippocampal inversion are associated. Less hippocampal inversion correlates with larger atria. For every 1-mm increase in fetal ventricular size, the odds of incomplete hippocampal inversion occurring increases by a factor of 1.6 in normal controls and 1.4 in patients with ventriculomegaly.Graphical Abstract (Source: Pediatric Radiology)

Prenatal ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging and therapeutic options for fetal thoracic anomalies: a pictorial essay
AbstractCongenital thoracic anomalies are uncommon malformations that require a precise diagnosis to guide parental counseling and possible prenatal treatment. Prenatal ultrasound (US) is the gold standard imaging modality to first detect and characterize these abnormalities and the best modality for follow-up. Fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a complementary tool that provides multiplanar assessment and tissue characterization and can help estimate prognosis. Prenatal treatment is increasingly being used in fetuses with signs of distress and to potentially decrease morbidity and mortality. In this essay, the auth...

Global resources in the fight against tuberculosis
This article reviews global resources available to doctors and healthcare professionals in the fight against TB, including international programmes, policies and healthcare pathways. Special attention is paid to the role of international paediatric radiology in improving diagnostics, including available educational resources and support on a global, regional, national and individual level.

Contemporary management of extracranial vascular malformations
AbstractVascular malformations are congenital vascular anomalies that originate because of disorganized angiogenesis, most commonly from spontaneous somatic genetic mutations. The modern management of vascular malformations requires a multidisciplinary team that offers patients the gamut of medical, surgical, and percutaneous treatment options with supportive care. This manuscript discusses the standard and contemporary management strategies surrounding extracranial vascular malformations and overgrowth syndromes. (Source: Pediatric Radiology)

Establishing a pediatric interventional radiology inpatient consult service
ConclusionAn inpatient pediatric IR consult service was quickly established and maintained by four physicians over a 27-month study period. Annual IR consult volume trended upward and consult-specific payments increased, resulting in previously uncaptured IR service revenue.Graphical abstract (Source: Pediatric Radiology)

Balloon angioplasty versus stent placement for the treatment of portal vein stenosis in children: a single center experience
ConclusionInterventional treatment is a safe and efficient method to treat portal vein stenosis with long patency times, regardless of etiology. Primary stent placement shows a higher primary patency time than balloon angioplasty. Implementation of stent placement as the primary interventional method may improve patency times and reduce the need for repeat reinterventions in pediatric patients. (Source: Pediatric Radiology)
