We failed to credit Dr M Masand, who kindly provided the cover image entitled “Cold light examination for diagnosis of pneumo-thorax in newborns – a vanishing skill” (pictured here) for the January 2003 issue of ADC – Fetal and Neonatal Edition (Arch Dis Child Fetal Neonatal Ed 2003; 89(1)). We would like to offer our sincere apologies to Dr Masand for this error.
