  • Abstract:
  • A considerable percentage of neonates are affected by pediatric congenital abnormalities, which make early diagnosis and treatment difficult..Radiological imaging is essential for diagnosing and managing pediatric congenital anomalies. Modalities like X-ray, ultrasound, CT, MRI, and nuclear imaging help detect structural and functional abnormalities. Ultrasound is preferred for prenatal and neonatal evaluation, while MRI and CT provide detailed assessments of complex anomalies. Advances in imaging technology have improved diagnostic accuracy and early intervention, enhancing patient outcomes. For children with congenital defects, radiological imaging is essential to diagnosis, assessment, and treatment planning. The main imaging modalities used in the diagnosis and treatment of pediatric congenital abnormalities are reviewed in this paper: ultrasound, Xray, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), fluoroscopy, and nuclear medicine. The function of imaging in a number of systems, such as the cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, musculoskeletal, and central nervous systems (CNS), is also examined. The significance of radiation safety, difficulties in pediatric imaging, and the incorporation of imaging results into therapeutic decision making are all emphasized in the review.
