WAGS: Wonderful Alternative to General Anesthesia & Sedation
Pediatric Imaging, especially MRI, can feel unfamiliar and overwhelming for young patients. That’s why SickKids’ WAGS program was created: to gently guide children and families through what will happen during MRI. Using age-appropriate explanations, play and simple coping strategies, WAGS helps make an MRI feel less scary and reduces the need for sedation and general anesthesia.
