Rapid lung MRI was found to be comparable to MDCT for detecting thoracic abnormalities in pediatric patients with clinically suspected pulmonary infections. It has a great potential as the first line cross-sectional imaging modality of choice in this patient population. However, further studies will be helpful for confirmation of our findings.

In the doses and time intervals used in our study, intranasal dexmedetomidine (2.5 μg·kg ) was found to be superior to oral midazolam (0.5 mg·kg ) for producing satisfactory sedation for CT imaging.

Venous and arterial thrombotic complications can occur in children with nephrotic syndrome. A high index of suspicion is required as the clinical features may be subtle. Neuroimaging and angiographic techniques help in confirming diagnosis. Early aggressive heparin therapy followed by oral anticoagulants is necessary for a favorable outcome.

Suprasternal palpation shows promise as a simple, safe, and teachable method of confirming ETT position in neonates.

Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD), originally described as sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy, is a rare histiocytic proliferative disorder with a distinctive microscopic appearance. Patients usually present with massive cervical lymphadenopathy. However other nodal sites (mediastinal and inguinal) are also frequently involved. The retro-peritoneum is an infrequent site of involvement. This uncommon entity should also be included in the list of differential diagnoses of diffuse and massive lymphadenopathy, which includes includes infectious/granulomatous conditions, lymphomatous and metastatic disease.
