Imaging recommendations in paediatric uroradiology. Minutes of the ESPR uroradiology task force session on childhood obstructive uropathy, high-grade fetal hydronephrosis, childhood haematuria, and urolithiasis in childhood. ESPR Annual Congress, Edinburgh, UK, June 2008.

摘要

The imaging and procedural recommendations as elaborated by the ESPR Paediatric Uroradiology Taskforce and the ESUR Paediatric Uroradiology Working Group were presented and discussed at the first uroradiology panel held during the ESPR Annual Congress in Barcelona in 2007. These recommendations were published in this journal [1] and have gained wide acceptance throughout Europe and beyond. A few imaging algorithms have been newly proposed by group members, partially completing the existing recommendations, and farther important recommendations have been added. The imaging algorithm for prenatally diagnosed hydronephrosis (HN) has been supplemented by a statement on imaging neonates with fetally diagnosed high-grade HN and suspected posterior urethral valves (PUV). Recommendations referring to imaging children with suspected obstructive uropathy, the imaging algorithm for childhood haematuria, and the imaging algorithm for children with suspected urolithiasis have been formulated
