ABSTRACT

Purpose: To define the individual ultrasonic morphometric age standards of the abdominal parenchymatous organs of the children living in the area of Kursk NPP.

Material and methods: The results are presented of ultrasonic examinations of 400 children at the age from 1 year to 17 years 11 months who are living in the area of Kursk NPP. The assessment of the lengths of the right kidney and oblique transverse dimension of the right lobe of the liver & the length of the left kidney and the length of the spleen depending on the age and sex of investigated was produced.

Results: Mathematical models and formulas have been developed for calculating standard ultrasonic morphometric parameters, annual growth of morphometric dimensions of abdominal parenchymatous organs was defined. Moreover, individual regulatory criteria for diagnosis hepatosplenomegaly was developed during the comparison of the length of the right kidney with oblique transverse dimension of the right liver lobe and the length of the left kidney with the length of the spleen .

Conclusion: The obliquely-transverse size of the liver right lobe must match the length of the right kidney as 1:1 for children between 3 and 11 years of age, the length of the spleen corresponds to the left kidney length as 1:1 for children between 2 and 11 years of age. The liver and spleen sizes of those children who are older than 12 should not exceed the length of the right and left kidneys respectively. In addition, it was shown that Kursk NPP operating normally has no negative impact on the formation and development of abdominal parenchymal organs in children and adolescents.

Key words: pediatric ultrasound, age standards, abdominal parenchymatous organs, Kursk NPP, territory of residence
