Children require special care. That's certainly true when they need medical imaging.

"Often having tests can be very frightening to children, so we have to make them feel safe and put them at ease," Pediatric Radiologist Gerard Horgan, M.D said. "The challenge of good radiology service for kids is to provide a quality examination with the least amount of trauma and anxiety," added Horgan.

Pediatric diseases and disorders are complicated, and they often require radiology services performed by experienced pediatric radiologists. At RMCH, we have pediatric imaging specialists who are certified by the American College of Radiology, and have achieved additional qualification in pediatric imaging.

Our pediatric team has extensive experience, and they have both the skill and the nuance of producing accurate information for referring pediatricians, family practice physicians, and the subspecialists at the hospital.
