    AbstractImage guidance is becoming standard of practice for cerebrospinal fluid sampling in children to improve success rates and avoid complications. This article discusses various imaging guidance techniques available in the pediatric age group. For neonates and infants, imaging guidance using ultrasound is the technique of choice, and for older children, fluoroscopy or even cone beam computed tomography can be used when anatomy is complex.Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Inc.
