Excerpt

I first got involved with the World Federation of Pediatric Imaging (WFPI) in August 2012 through its outreach program. Just a few weeks after the first e-mail contact I was reading pediatric radiographs from Khayelitsha Hospital in South Africa. Images were sent as JPEG files through e-mail by a local radiographer (WFPI now uses a DICOM server). I got to report about 15 radiographs a month. The pathology varied, including pneumonias, congenital heart disease and trauma (Fig. 1). Because the hospital has no radiologist, my e-mailed reports were forwarded to the referring clinicians.
