  • CT assessment of normal splenic size in children.
    Acta radiologica (Stockholm Sweden : 1987), 1994
    Co-Authors: Panos Prassopoulos, Dionisis Cavouras
    Abstract:

    The size of the normal spleen was estimated by CT in 153 children, examined with indication unrelated to splenic disease. In each patient the width, thickness, length and volume of the spleen were calculated. Measurements were also normalized to the transverse diameter of the body of the First Lumbar Vertebra. The spleen underwent significant growth during the First 4 years of life and reached maximum size at the age of 13. There were no differences in splenic volume between boys and girls. Splenic thickness correlated best with normal splenic volume. The strongest correlation was also found between splenic thickness and volume in a group of 45 children with clinically evident splenomegaly. Splenic thickness, an easy-to-use measurement, may be employed in everyday practice to represent splenic volume on CT.

  • Renal parenchymal thickness in children measured by computed tomography.
    European urology, 1994
    Co-Authors: Panos Prassopoulos, Dionisis Cavouras
    Abstract:

    Renal parenchymal thickness was measured at different regions and levels through the kidney in 162 abdominal computed tomography (CT) examinations of children 5 months to 14 years old. The transverse diameter of the First Lumbar Vertebra (L 1 ) was also measured, in order to take into account the child's body habitus. All patients were examined with an indication other than renal disease and had no abnormal CT findings in the retroperitoneum. Renal parenchyma increased in parallel with the transverse diameter of L 1 and did not depend on age or sex in children of the same body format. There were no significant differences in size between the right and the left kidneys. Renal measurements were tabulated on reference tables, as an aid in the assessment of renal parenchymal thickness in children undergoing abdominal CT examination
