Summary, etc. The idea for this book came about from two different perspectives. First, not<br/>a day in the office goes by without a parent or caregiver asking me for more<br/>anatomic detail about their child’s condition. Lacking natural artistic and<br/>drawing abilities, I have found that showing the families a picture of the<br/>pathology and/or anatomy is extremely valuable in our discussions and joint<br/>decision-making process. Secondly, optical endoscopy has revolutionized<br/>imaging in the head and neck. It has allowed illumination, magnification, and<br/>visualization in spaces that are not fully appreciated with the naked eye.<br/>Endoscopes offer some advantages even beyond binocular microscopy,<br/>including an increased field of view and lack of line-of-sight limitations. This<br/>allows us to look around the corners, with improved brightness and clarity.<br/>This atlas is by no means meant to be a comprehensive review of pediatric<br/>otolaryngology disorders but rather to provide some illustrative images,<br/>along with a brief discussion of clinical considerations, and to help educate<br/>our patients, families, caregivers, medical students, residents, fellows, and<br/>other allied health professionals. Most, but not all, of the images were captured with an optical endoscope. This is meant to stimulate thought processes<br/>in the future for further possibilities for capturing images, as other types of<br/>image-capturing technologies grow and expand with time. The content is<br/>divided by anatomic area in the head and neck: ear, nose, throat/mouth, and<br/>airway/aerodigestive tract. We feel that this will be a helpful resource for not<br/>just the otolaryngologist who cares for children but the far more numerous<br/>pediatricians and other caregivers, such as speech and language pathologists,<br/>nurses, physician assistants, medical assistants, nurse practitioners, and audiologists. Our hope is that this is just the beginning of an imaging collection,<br/>and that there will be continued discovery and contribution to further improve<br/>this atlas.
