We retrospectively evaluated the usefulness of sonography in the diagnostic assessment of children with abdominal pain. ⋯ Abdominal sonography is useful in children with ASAP. Although an underlying abnormality was rarely found in children with RAP, children who have RAP with atypical clinical features should have sonographic screening. If no abnormalities are found, the normal sonograms may be reassuring to parents.
