According to Dr. Le Anh Phong, Director of Dong Nai Children's Hospital: Children cannot clearly describe their symptoms like adults. When faced with pain, children often cry and fuss, making it difficult for doctors to examine them and make an accurate diagnosis.

Therefore, diagnostic imaging techniques such as ultrasound and X-ray play a crucial role in helping doctors diagnose diseases and develop treatment plans for children. It is essential for doctors to possess the necessary skills and update their knowledge from higher-level medical professionals to improve their expertise.

This workshop is one of a series of training programs implemented by the health sector to enhance the capacity of doctors and medical staff at the grassroots level. Doctors will have access to diagnostic imaging equipment and gain information about the clinical symptoms of acute illnesses in children. This will contribute to early detection, diagnosis, and treatment, reducing complications and improving treatment outcomes for patients.
