The Department of Pediatric Radiology at C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital offers a full range of diagnostic radiological services for pediatric patients. They are working with PEACH on two projects exploring equitable imaging orders and accommodations. Project 1: Explores if outpatient patients who receive same-day accommodation for ultrasounds (that do not require this accommodation due to clinical indication) differ by race, ethnicity, and income. Project 2: Examines whether imaging (ultrasound, CT scan, MRI) is used differentially in pediatric patients presenting to Children's Emergency Services with abdominal pain based on BMI.
