c. The pancreas is more easily visualized in children through the left lobe of the liver.

Ans 170: (b) The thickness of the normal pyloric muscle should not exceed 3 mm.
(c) The pancreas is more easily visualized in children through the left lobe of the liver.

Sol:
•The mucosa of the pylorus is echobright and muscle is echopoor.
•Dimensions of pyloric muscle vary depending on size of the child. However upper limits in the longitudinal section are as follows: 3 mm thickness of pyloric muscle, and 17 mm in length for the pyloric canal. With measurements above these figures pyloric stenosis has to be suspected.
•The pancreas is more easily visualized in children through the left lobe of the liver and provides an acoustic window.
•The left lobe of the liver extends anterior to the spleen,trace of free fluid between the left lobe of liver and spleen may give rise to an erroneus diagnosis of laceration of the spleen.
