Congenital anomalies of the gastrointestinal tract can pose serious threats to the health of newborn infants and children. Perhaps nowhere has pediatric surgery had as dramatic an impact as in the care and treatment of these conditions. The pediatric radiologist works closely with the surgeon in evaluating these anomalies in young children. Plain radiographic films and contrast studies have been and remain the first step in studying these anomalies. Newer imaging modalities, however, also have made contributions to the continuing importance of the role of the radiologist in the diagnosis and care of children with these anomalies.
胃肠道先天性异常可对新生儿和儿童的健康构成严重威胁。也许在儿科手术领域，没有哪个方面像对这些病症的护理和治疗那样产生如此巨大的影响。儿科放射科医生在评估幼儿的这些异常情况时与外科医生密切合作。普通X线片和造影检查一直是且仍然是研究这些异常情况的第一步。然而，更新的成像方式也为放射科医生在诊断和护理患有这些异常的儿童方面持续发挥的重要作用做出了贡献。
