Course Description

Join Dr. Grace Mitchell as she provides an overview of pediatric airway and chest disorders, highlighting key entities you might encounter in your practice. This course will help you navigate the unique challenges of interpreting pediatric imaging, offering insights into anatomic considerations across different stages of life and how to adapt protocols for pediatric patients. You'll also gain familiarity with the distinct appearances of anatomical structures in children and learn best practices for imaging protocols and interpretation.

Dr. Grace Mitchell will also provide an essential introduction to key pediatric lung disorders, including neonatal lung disorders, congenital lung malformations, and infectious lung disorders. She’ll also explore large airway disorders and iatrogenic conditions unique to pediatric patients, and share valuable pearls and pitfalls, helping you recognize critical imaging findings.

Read alongside Dr. Mitchell as she showcases her approach interpreting pediatric imaging on CT and X-Ray for various diagnoses like:

  • Fungal Infection: aspergillus
  • Foregut duplication cysts

Optimize your learning:

  • Test Yourself - Before starting the video, launch the DICOM study and complete your independent review of the case in our diagnostic web viewer.
  • Review at your own pace - Reminder to utilize the video player features to speed up or slow down the video, pause or rewind to best fit your available time and learning needs.
  • Read alongside Dr. Mitchell - Keep the DICOM study open while you watch Dr. Mitchell review the cases. We suggest popping the DICOM viewer open in a new window and viewing side by side with the video on your screen.
