Associating a standardized reporting tool for chest radiographs with clinical complications in pediatric acute chest syndrome.
The objective of this retrospective cohort study was to analyze the interobserver agreement among pediatric radiologists' interpretations for pediatric acute chest syndrome (ACS) chest radiographs. The researchers also explored the association of radiographic findings with ACS complications. Data was taken from pediatric ACS admissions from a single institution in 2019. The results showed moderate to near-perfect agreement between radiologists. Left lower opacity, and pleural effusion were associated with increased risk of ACS complications.
