Purpose To study the role of magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of lung pathologies in children.Relevance: According to UNICEF, respiratory diseases occupy the first place due to the mortality of children from 0 to 14 years old.Also, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), more than 2 million children under the age of 5 die from respiratory tract diseases every year, which is about 15% of the total number of child deaths and has socio-medical significance.Given the need for repeated studies...
Read more Methods and materials From September 2022 to May 2024, 18 patients with various types of lung pathology, aged 3 to 15 years, were examined for MRI in the Department of Inpatient Radiology of the CF «University Medical Center», including:          • boys – 9 (50.0%)          • girls – 9 (50.0%)The research was carried out on «Philips Ingenia 3 Tesla» magnetic resonance imaging machine. The subsequent post processing of the received data was carried out on «Philips» and «Akgun HIS» workstations, using special image processing programs. CT...
Read more Results A retrospective analysis of MRI findings from 18 patients with various lung pathologies. Among them, the following were identified:*10 patients (55.6%) had lung formations smaller than 10 mm;*3 patients (16.7%) had lung formations larger than 10 mm;*1 patient (5.6%) exhibited signs of pleuropneumonia;*1 patient (5.6%) showed paravertebral postoperative changes;*3 patients (16.7%) had no detectable lung pathology on MRI.Additionally, the analysis noted several cases where MRI findings were compared with CT images, highlighting the importance of understanding the differences between these...
Read more Conclusion The conducted study allowed for an analysis of the application of MRI in diagnosing lung pathologies in children, comparing it is effectiveness with the more familiar method of  CT. It was found that despite some limitations of MRI, such as blurriness of results in certain diseases, MRI is capable of detecting a wide range of lung pathologies, confirming it is significance in clinical practice. Thus, MRI in the diagnosis of lungs in children is a highly effective non-radiation method in...
