Bowel Imaging in Children: Part 2.

The bowel is a challenging abdominal organ to image. A variety of bowel disorders such as congenital, developmental, inflammatory, infectious and neoplastic lesions can affect children and most of them are either unique to this age group or have a distinct clinico-radiological appearance compared to adults. Imaging forms an integral part of management of these disorders. This article will cover inflammatory/infective, neoplastic and miscellaneous disorders affecting the bowel. The authors will highlight the salient imaging features for those entities.
