CT radiation exposure and management of delayed pseudoaneurysms in pediatric liver and spleen injuries: A multicenter study
Pediatric patients not receiving prophylactic embolization trended to have high radiation exposure from CT scans and had a higher rate of ruptured delayed pseudoaneurysm compared to those receiving embolization. These findings support further study of strategies to reduce rupture risk and radiation exposure.
