This is a new collection of cases for the pediatric radiology Case Review Series. I was pleased to collect and arrange these cases upon the friendly invitation by Dr. David Yousem. The collection will be part of the second edition of the Requisite Series of Pediatric Radiology. The purpose of the Case Review Series is a didactic one. It allows readers to explore, deepen, and further develop their knowledge in a most fascinating area of imagingpediatric radiology. The cases match the daily routine practice and will stimulate readers to further diagnostic investigation using textbooks, journals, and the Internet. Studying these cases should be fun.

The creation of an attractive collection of cases was only possible with the help of my gifted and dedicated colleagues from the pediatric radiology medical staff: Drs. Jane Benson, Renee Flax-Goldenberg, Melissa Spevak, and Aylin Tekes. They all contributed from their fields of interest and expertise. We tried to cover the spectrum of pediatric radiology to the best of our abilities. I thank all my staff pediatric radiologists for their contributions, help, and patience.

Another essential factor in completing this case review is the fact that we are supported and intellectually challenged by brilliant pediatric physicians at the Johns Hopkins Hospital and University, with their professional requests and stimulating discussions at our daily joint conferences. This interdisciplinary culture has its roots in Johns Hopkins four core values: (1) excellence and discovery, (2) leadership and integrity, (3) diversity and inclusion, and (4) respect and collegiality. These are as valid today as they were at the founding of our hospital and our school of medicine in the late nineteenth century. Our clinical colleagues are aware of the value and expert use of our imaging tools in the diagnosis and treatment of their patients. Our thanks goes to both: to our colleagues and to their patients who sought help at our institution and provided us with their imaging data.
