    Notes: Abstract Over the past 5 years we have used the new dimeric, non-ionic, water-soluble contrast agent iotrolan (Isovist-300) in 370 studies of the paediatric gastrointestinal tract. Iotrolan is by far the best accepted and tolerated contrast agent for young children. Because of its iso-osmolality it can be used without dilution. No ill effects were reported in cases of aspiration or perforation. In all studies very high contrast images were obtained and the required diagnostic information was provided. The only disadvantage of iotrolan is its present high price. However, in view of the small volumes required in children (10 ml is sufficient in 59% and 20 ml sufficient in 92% of investigations) this should not be a major obstacle to its use. Iotrolan promotes a much greater readiness among paediatricians and paediatric surgeons to have gastrointestinal studies performed on very small and very sick babies.

    Notes: Abstract Cockayne's syndrome is a rare familial disorder characterised clinically by premature aging, appearing progressively from the third year on. The radiological manifestations of eight affected children have been studied and summarised. It is concluded that a skeletal survey can provide a roentgenologic pattern suggesting the diagnosis, even when it is inconclusive from the clinical signs during the first years of life. The aetiology of this syndrome is unknown, but the authors postulate the possible role of a defect of thymic hormone which has been found in all their cases.
