Abstract
A considerable amount of effort has been put into the reduction of the overuse of antibiotics and reduction in radiographic studies in the pediatric population. Infections within the ear, nose, and throat and in cervical regions are a frequent source of antibiotic use in children. Quality improvement projects creating clear care pathways have been important to delineate which imaging may be most helpful.
