Children's Hospital Boston is home to the nation's oldest and largest pediatric imaging group. We perform about 200,000 imaging studies each year at the hospital and its satellite clinics in Lexington and Waltham, using state-of-the-art equipment specially designed or adapted for pediatric use.

Our team of highly trained pediatric radiologists, nurses, technologists, and child life specialists are all focused on one goal: obtaining the best possible images for a timely and accurate diagnosis of your child's condition, while keeping him or her as safe and comfortable as possible.

We achieve this goal by:

  • Using imaging equipment specifically designed or adapted for pediatric use
  • Treating children and their families with respect and compassion
  • Involving on-site child life specialists, who help the entire family become comfortable with imaging procedures by assisting children in developmentally appropriate ways
  • Limiting radiation exposure to the lowest doses possible

Who knew there was a spaceship in the basement of Children's Hospital Boston at Waltham? It's really a simulator to prepare youngsters for functional MRI studies of their brain.
