Normal liver, spleen, and kidney dimensions in neonates, infants, and children: evaluation with sonography.

Abstract

Determination of pathologic changes in size of the liver, spleen, and kidney necessitates knowing the normal range of dimensions for these organs in healthy neonates, infants, and children. Presented data are applicable in daily routine sonography. Body height should be considered the best criteria to correlate with longitudinal dimensions of these organs.
