Children's Hospital Boston is home to the nation's oldest and largest pediatric imaging group. We perform about 200,000 imaging studies each year at the hospital and its satellite clinics in Lexington y Waltham, using state-of-the-art equipment specially designed or adapted for pediatric use.
Our team of highly trained pediatric radiologists, nurses, technologists, and child life specialists are all focused on one goal: obtaining the best possible images for a timely and accurate diagnosis of your child's condition, while keeping him or her as safe and comfortable as possible.
We achieve this goal by:
- Using imaging equipment specifically designed or adapted for pediatric use
- Treating children and their families with respect and compassion
- Involving on-site child life specialists, who help the entire family become comfortable with imaging procedures by assisting children in developmentally appropriate ways
- Limiting radiation exposure to the lowest doses possible
