approaches and for understanding the signifi that is concise and informative Kudos to Dr Wells for the cance of imaging findings The easy-to-read style and the superlative work clear correlation of radiologic findings with disease patho This richly illustrated reference covers the gamut of pediatric diseases and injuries Extensive integration of physiology and clinical features make it an excellent choice for medical students, residents, and fellows clinical considerations and review of disease pathogenesis This text is a terrific source of information across the help to make sense of imaging patterns and provide the entire spectrum of pediatric radiology, and I strongly rec radiologist with tools to establish a confident diagnosis ommend this book to anyone interested in the subject Readers of various backgrounds will find this text use ful Radiologists can pull it off the shelf for a quick review Richard Towbin, MD of the imaging findings and differential diagnosis of a

The B i n A Figure 5-18 Ex vacuo ventriculomegaly A T2-weighted MR image a 2-year-old child with a history of perinatal asphyxia shows prominence of the lateral ventricles in conjunction with expansion of the subarachnoid spaces and parenchymal brain thinning B c Figure 5-17 Benign enlargement of the subarachnoid spaces This s-month-old infant presented with macrocephaly A, B Coronal and midline sagittal color Doppler sonographic images show vessels coursing through prominent subarachnoid spaces C Bridging cortical veins in the convexity subarachnoid spaces are also visible on this unenhanced CT image Complications and malfunctions of CNS shunts are common The risk for mechanical shunt failure is great est during the first several months after placement Infants are also at greater risk for shunt failure than are older chil dren and adults The overall failure rate (including infec tions) for CNS shunt catheters is approximately 40% per year Mechanical failure occurs in approximately 30% of patients per year The most frequent form of shunt malfunction is luminal obstruction, without mechanical shunt disrup tion A radionudide shunt study is the mainstay imaging technique for assessing shunt patency and the adequacy of fluid absorption Injection of iodinated contrast under fluoroscopic observation is useful for selected patients With both techniques , the shunt reservoir is punctured, the C S F pressure measured, a specimen collected, and the ease of fluid aspiration assessed During injection of radiopharmaceutical, the distal limb of the shunt should be compressed (or the on-off valve depressed into the off position) Anterior and lateral images are then obtained of the head The valve, if present, is returned to the "on" Chapter Hyd roce p h a l u
