Radiation Protection in Pediatrics Flashcard Deck - 10 Cards

Flashcard 1: The X-ray of choice to determine the skeletal age of a 1 to 13 year-old boy is X-ray of the _____ and wrist.

Answer: left hand

Flashcard 2: The X-ray of choice to determine the skeletal age of a 3 to 9 month-old boy is X-ray of the _____

Answer: shoulder

Flashcard 3: X-rays of the skull reveal enlarged sella and intersutural (wormian) bones in children with Congenital _____

Answer: hypothyroidism

Flashcard 4: What is a pathognomonic metaphyseal lesion seen in child abuse (Non-Accidental Injury) on X-ray? Metaphyseal _____ fracture

Answer: Bucket-handle (or Corner fracture)

Extra: The Classic Metaphyseal Lesion (CML) is pathognomonic for child abuse (Non-Accidental Injury). It involves a planar fracture through the primary spongiosa of the metaphysis. - **Corner fracture:** Seen when the fragment is viewed in profile. - **Bucket-handle fracture:** Seen when the disk-like fragment is tilted or viewed en face. Note: While John Caffey originally described these findings, the term "Caffey's syndrome" is now more commonly associated with Infantile Cortical Hyperostosis, a differential diagnosis for child abuse. To avoid confusion, it is better to use 'Child Abuse' or 'NAI'.

Flashcard 5: Radiological features of scurvy: _____: Expansion of the costochondral junctions

Answer: Scorbutic rosary

Flashcard 6: What is a pathognomonic skeletal feature of child abuse on X-ray?

Answer: Sub-epiphyseal micro-fracture (Classic Metaphyseal Lesion)

Extra: The Classic Metaphyseal Lesion (CML), also known as a corner or bucket-handle fracture, is highly specific for non-accidental injury (child abuse). It represents a series of micro-fractures across the primary spongiosa of the metaphysis. While MRI can detect bone marrow edema, these lesions are primarily identified on a skeletal survey (X-ray).

Flashcard 7: Contrast enema shows an empty microcolon in case of _____

Answer: Meconium ileus

Flashcard 8: Target sign on USG Abdomen is suggestive of _____.

Answer: intussusception

Flashcard 9: The given barium enema is suggestive of _____ disease

Answer: Hirschsprung

Flashcard 10: The given USG shows _ sign and _ sign in congenital hypertrophic pyloric stenosis
