But only every hundredth radiologist specializes in examinations on children. Thus there are over 300 children's clinics in Germany that cannot work with a department that is competent in pediatric radiology. We are therefore particularly pleased to work with the Dr. Hancken to be able to offer this service to the children's clinic of the Elbeklinikum and the resident paediatricians. What is pediatric radiology? As with adults, imaging procedures such as X-rays, sonography (ultrasound), computer and magnetic resonance tomography are valuable tools in everyday medical practice. Often, however, the demands of children are different: the technical execution of the examinations and also the answering of the questions is more difficult than with adults. Diagnostic imaging is not only about dealing with children and about radiation protection alone, but especially about knowledge of the diverse clinical pictures of the various age groups of children and adolescents. In the following, we want to bring you a little closer to the individual procedures using child-specific questions or individual examples on the following pages (see "Examinations" at the bottom right). In the Dr. Hancken, a team of doctors with a certified pediatric radiologist ensures that the correct and necessary examinations are carried out on every child correctly and with the lowest possible radiation exposure. In addition, the image quality is optimized by the most modern devices. All examinations are not only for inpatients and outpatients at the Elbeklinikum but Would you like to call us?
