Manuscript reviews general information about use of hybrid imaging using positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging in pediatric patients. The basic technical aspects, logistic and specific aspects in children are explained. There are summarized the most serious indications of PET/MRI in children when this kind of imaging might play the important role.

Keywords: PET/MRI, pediatric imaging, positron emission tomography, hybrid imaging
