Abstract
Sonography of fractures is a long-established method in fracture treatment that has not yet achieved widespread acceptance. The Association of the Scientific Medical Societies in Germany (AWMF) guidelines published in 2023 provide healthcare providers with reassurance regarding the ultrasound-guided treatment of frequent fracture entities in childhood. Sonography is recommended as a standard diagnostic procedure for fractures in childhood by the Radiation Protection Commission (SSK). With this work we aim to provide a practice-oriented overview of fracture diagnostics in childhood, considering the advantages and disadvantages. Clinical examples are used to demonstrate the guideline-compliant diagnostics of fractures in childhood.
