Medicine is, fortunately, constantly evolving. Imaging diagnosis is no exception. Technical improvements guarantee further developments in diagnosis. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have attained a recognized value in the diagnosis of the heart, which is continuing to increase. For this reason, we have now provided a separate chapter on diagnostic imaging of the heart. We have placed sectional CT images next to MR images of the heart to facilitate classification. We have limited ourselves to scans which are presently recognized as standard.

Positron emission tomography (PET) has been at the forefront of functional and molecular imaging for a number of years. The future of diagnostic imaging depends upon the ability to change from imaging anatomy to examining the processes at work in the body. The fact that there are now monographs examining particular aspects of PET, such as this book on the examination of children, speaks to the newly won maturity of PET. The authors are to be congratulated for the timely appearance of this volume....

In recent years, there has been a paradigm shift in learning, specifically the manner in which information is gathered and ingested. This is particularly no- table in subject matter that covers great breadth or is rapidly evolving, such as medicine, and more specifically, diagnostic imaging. Students and residents (and for that matter, practicing radiologists) quickly turn to the Internet to “Google™” unknown factoids, rapidly gathering information, in many cases without source validation.

Diagnostic ultrasound is a rapidly developing imaging technology widely used in both industrialized and developing countries, as stated by a WHO Study Group in 1996. Ultrasound is especially suitable for poorer countries even outside the centers of population, since ultrasound does not need a sophisticated infrastructure or expensive installations, but can be used with transportable units even without a direct branch connection.

Radiographic cephalometry has been one of the most important diagnostic tools in orthodontics, since its introduction in the early 1930s by Broadbent in the United States and Hofrath in Germany. Generations of orthodontists have relied on the interpretation of these images for their diagnosis and treatment planning as well as for the long-term follow-up of growth and treatment results. Also in the planning for surgical orthodontic corrections of jaw discrepancies, lateral and antero-posterior cephalograms have been valuable tools.

Few fi elds of medicine have witnessed such impressive progress as the diagnosis and treatment of liver tumors. Advances in imaging technology, the development of novel contrast agents, and the introduction of optimized scanning protocols have greatly facilitated the non-invasive detection and characterization of focal liver lesions. Furthermore, image-guided techniques for percutaneous tumor ablation have become an accepted alternative treatment for patients with inoperable liver cancer.

Children rarely present with the symptoms classically associated with heart disease in adults (chest pain, shortness of breath, swollen ankles) – rather they present with a variety of symptoms such as failure to thrive, frequent chest infections, or unexplained ‘funny turns’. A careful history and examination is key, as are special investigations such as CXR, ECG and pulse oximetry. An echocardiogram is the gold standard investigation required to confirm the diagnosis.
