Female urethral diverticula are probably a more common cause of symptomatology than is generally suspected. Radiologic techniques may play a key role in their demonstration. Particularly in the patient with clinical findings referable to the urethral area, fluoroscopy of the urethra as part of cystography as well as the use of urethral catheters may be helpful in diagnosis.

Care of pediatric patients sedated with pentobarbital sodium in MRI.

MRI is the optimum modality in imaging studies for diseases of the CNS and musculoskeletal systems. During MRI scans, no movement is allowed for 30-50 minutes. Therefore most children under age 7 need to be sedated. Judicious use of pentobarbital sodium allows for safe and expedient MRI scans to be completed and requires nursing observation.
