This focused 6 hour pediatric mini course is designed for clinical radiologists and learners who are involved in the after-hours care of pediatric patients. The course provides an overview of high-yield, time-sensitive pediatric imaging findings that commonly present during nights and weekends. Participants will gain practical insights into recognizing critical diagnoses, avoiding common pitfalls, and improving diagnostic confidence in the afterhours setting. The curriculum spans a wide range of emergent pediatric conditions, including thoracic, genitourinary, gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal, and neurologic emergencies. Special attention is given to mimics and diagnostic traps that can lead to misinterpretation, as well as to the unique considerations in evaluating for non-accidental trauma. By the end of this mini course, participants will be able to: (1) Identify and interpret key imaging findings in noncardiac pediatric chest emergencies. (2) Recognize scrotal emergencies and pitfalls. (3) Diagnose gastrointestinal emergencies and pitfalls. (4) Assess pediatric renal after-hours emergencies. (5) Evaluate female pelvic emergencies. (6) Interpret imaging in pediatric abdominal trauma. (7) Analyze pediatric elbow injuries. (8) Recognize imaging signs of child abuse. (9) Approach the limping child with appropriate imaging strategies. (10) Identify neuroemergencies, including brain and spine. (11) Engage with a curated selection of interesting and challenging cases to reinforce learning.
