Ultrasound is a marvelous imaging modality in pediatric radiology. Children are often lean and small and this creates favorable conditions for ultrasound. Anesthesia is not necessary and the exams can be done at the bedside. During the ultrasound examination the radiologist can not
only image the patient but also obtain a clinical history, and thus be informed about the clinical situation of the patient in much more detail than any radiology request form can reveal. In 1990 a book on pediatric ultrasound by Reinhard Schulz and Ulrich Willi was published. Its chapters were
composed of a short text and many images. The book inspired us to publish a new book on diagnostic pediatric ultrasound, with a limited amount of text, many images and as a tribute to modern technology: on-line video clips. Video clips capture one of the most important aspects of
ultrasound imaging, the ability to see motion in real-time. The book is intended for all health workers who perform pediatric ultrasound like pediatric-radiologists, general radiologists, radiology residents, pediatricians, and sonographers. It is the result of the efforts of many authors who describe the sonographic findings of a spectrum of diseases in their favorite organ system. This cooperation also gave the possibility to exchange images among the authors.
