Artificial intelligence (AI) is already being used in most medical disciplines, including paediatric pneumology. This review describes current developments in AI-supported technologies and discusses their potential for the diagnosis and treatment of ...
IMPORTANCE: Decreasing mortality in the field of pediatric critical care medicine has shifted practicing clinicians' attention to preserving patients' neurodevelopmental potential as a main objective. Earlier identification of critically ill children...

PURPOSE: This study aimed to develop a deep-learning framework to generate multi-organ masks from CT images in adult and pediatric patients.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurological condition, with recent statistics from the CDC indicating a rising prevalence of ASD diagnoses among infants and children. This trend emphasizes the critical importance of early detection, as timely di...
Strabismus, or eye misalignment, is a common condition affecting individuals of all ages. Early detection and accurate classification are essential for proper treatment and avoiding long-term complications. This research presents a new deep-learning-...
Waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) is an essential predictor of cardiometabolic diseases, but traditional tape-based WHR measurements in children and adolescents can cause discomfort due to direct contact and are prone to measurer variation. This study aimed t...
Choroid plexus (CP) is an important brain structure that produces cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). CP perfusion has been studied using multi-delay arterial spin labeling (MD-ASL) in adults but not in pediatric populations due to the challenge of small CP s...
BACKGROUND: Primary intracranial germ cell tumors (iGCTs) are highly malignant brain tumors that predominantly occur in children and adolescents, with an incidence rate ranking third among primary brain tumors in East Asia (8%-15%). Due to their insi...
The larynx of children and adolescents is still in the developmental phase and the anatomical structure is still very small and sensitive. The higher malignancy and faster progression of some paediatric thyroid cancers make surgery more difficult. In...
BACKGROUND: The risk of malignancy in thyroid nodules is higher in children than in adults, often necessitating a more aggressive endocrine and surgical approach. However, given that not all solid thyroid nodules are malignant, a more conservative ap...
