Center For Advanced Intestinal Rehabilitation (Cair)

Boston Children

Critical Care Medicine's primary clinical activities occur in the Medical-Surgical Intensive Care Unit (MSICU). The MSICU is one of the highest volume pediatric intensive care units in the United States, with 30 beds and more than 2,000 admissions annually. The MSICU provides care for infants and children with all types of medical and surgical conditions except for cardiac surgery, with specific expertise in the care of patients with neurologic and oncologic diseases (including stem cell transplant recipients). Critical Care Medicine has a unique collaboration with the Department of Surgery, with surgeons trained in critical care providing coverage in the MSICU.

The Pediatric Radiology Department at Boston Children's Hospital combines individualized care, specialty expertise, and the most advanced technology to obtain the highest quality ultrasounds for children with images that provide the most accurate diagnoses for patients ranging in age from fetal life through young adulthood. Pediatric Ultrasound, which is also known as sonography, is a painless, non-invasive imaging technique that lets us look inside your child's body without the use of radiation. It uses high-frequency sound waves to create pictures of organs, muscles, soft tissues and blood vessels.
