Emergency ultrasonography is an appealing imaging modality in paediatric emergencies, given its non-invasive nature and potential as an adjunct to physical examination in a setting where rapid decisions need to be made. This review of a case series describes the applications, versatility, and limitations of emergency physician led ultrasonography in a paediatric resuscitation room in a sub-Saharan African setting.
