Texas Children's child life specialists can help you and your child prepare for a visit and ease fears about medical procedures. Our specialists explain procedures in a kid-friendly way and keep children calm through creative interventions including toys, music, and special breathing techniques. 

Radiology at Texas Children’s Hospital recently began a new era of advanced image processing, further progressing our ability to provide the highest level of patient-centered care. Using new technologies, 3D printing allows diagnostic images to be translated into exact 3D replicas used by surgeons and other physicians as they prepare for surgery and explain procedures or anomalies to patient families.
