Abstract
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this article is to review some of the common indications for pediatric musculoskeletal ultrasound examination, with emphasis given to imaging technique, normal anatomy, and the spectrum of pathologic findings seen in the pediatric population. CONCLUSION: Ultrasound is an essential first-line tool in pediatric musculoskeletal imaging. It aids in determining which patients may benefit from further imaging, including radiography, CT, and MRI.
