When it comes to diagnostic imaging of pediatric patients, consideration of a child’s age, size, weight, metabolism, activity level, and critical development is of the utmost importance and requires a unique approach. Join Dr. Solís in this case review study where she navigates the complexity of pediatric MR imaging and showcases one of the best-in-class clinical cases of her daily practice.
The clinical case discussed is a follow up study of a 12-year-old boy with a known low grade glioma.
