Abstract
This article examines the multifaceted challenges encountered in the domain of pediatric radiology positioning and presents a comprehensive overview of effective solutions to address these obstacles. Pediatric radiology, while essential for accurate diagnoses, often presents unique challenges stemming from childrens inherent tendencies to be uncooperative or anxious during medical procedures. Through an extensive exploration of the literature and practical insights, this study sheds light on the complexities of patient cooperation, image quality concerns, and the overarching need for patient-centred care. The article delves into solutions such as customized positioning aids, distraction techniques, and tailored communication that have proven successful in creating a more comfortable and cooperative environment for pediatric patients. Additionally, the role of collaborative efforts with play specialists and parental involvement in mitigating these challenges is underscored. The synthesis of these strategies not only addresses technical challenges but also emphasizes the importance of emotional well-being for young patients undergoing radiological procedures. In a rapidly advancing field, this article provides valuable insights for medical practitioners, encouraging a holistic approach that combines technical innovation with empathetic patient care to overcome the unique challenges faced in paediatric radiology positioning
