ReviewPediatric Radiology in Era of COVID-19, International Consensus and What Lies Beyond Pneumonia: A Review.
Diagnostic radiology plays a crucial role in children. The pediatric population has been less studied than the adult population since the initial period of the COVID-19 pandemic to date. ⋯ Apart from the involvement of lungs, a multisystemic inflammatory syndrome in children or pediatric multi systemic inflammatory syndrome is unique in children. Therefore, awareness of the recent consensus, structural uniform reporting and multi-organ involving patterns in COVID-19 can guide radiologists for a better understanding of this complex novel disease leading to early diagnosis and timely treatment of affected children.
