Pediatric Radiology

The Division of Pediatric Radiology delivers state-of-the-art care to infants, children and adolescents in a comfortable, supportive and child-friendly environment. 

We offer comprehensive diagnostic imaging services, including x-rays, ultrasounds, bone densitometry scans, fluoroscopic scans, CT scans, MRI scans and PET/MR scans. Scans are performed using the most advanced equipment, giving special consideration to the safety and comfort of the child. Our pediatric radiologists are leaders in their field, with strong national and international reputations and achievements. Weill Cornell Medicine is also a leader in low-dose imaging, limiting our patients’ exposure to radiation as much as possible.

Our radiologists and technologists are always available to address concerns from patients, parents and referring physicians.

Our outpatient center, Weill Cornell Imaging at NewYork-Presbyterian, also features a pediatric MRI program, “MRIamahero!,” which is geared towards reducing anxiety and eliminating the need for risks associated with sedation during the MRI exams by producing our youngest patients with the a safe and enjoyable imaging experience through education and coordinated care. Our program offers the ultimate superhero experience, allowing children and parents alike to understand what an MRI is, what it looks like, sounds like, and what it does! We also offer the services of a dedicated imaging Child Life Specialist who uses added tools and assessment for a personalized experience based upon your child and family’s needs.
