What Patients Are Saying

Our EOS Imaging System

Many parents express concern about exposing their child or teenager to radiation during an X-ray or CT scan. We are physicians, but we are also parents, so we fully appreciate their concern.

Using only about 10% of the radiation of traditional X-rays, EOS imaging is a low-dose x-ray, 2D/3D imaging technology that provides a detailed x-ray image of bones with more accurate information than traditional x-rays. The EOS system allows for more accurate assessment and—as a result—better, more precise treatments.

We are the only pediatric orthopedic practice in northern New Jersey to offer the EOS imaging technology.

Advancements In The Treatment of Clubfoot

Approximately 7 in 1,000 children are born with clubfoot in the United States. Clubfoot occurs when the tendons and muscles connecting your baby’s heel to the leg are shorter than normal, causing the baby’s foot to turn inward. With clubfoot, a baby’s foot may be up to ½” shorter than the other foot and the calf muscles in the affected leg may be smaller than normal, as well. While not typically associated with other conditions, clubfoot can be found in children with other neuromuscular disorders.
