2006年4月1日 · Cranial sonography (US) is the most widely used neuroimaging procedure in premature infants. US helps in assessing the neurologic status of the child, since clinical examination and symptoms are often nonspecific. It gives information about immediate and long term prognosis. by Erik Beek and Floris Groenendaal.

•Cranial ultrasound is an integral part of the assessment of neonates •Safe & easily performed with the ability to obtain high quality images of the brain •Scans can be used to evaluate normal brain anatomy, maturation and the evolution of pathology …

2018年9月1日 · The colour and spectral Doppler ultrasound of cranial blood vessels is valuable for assessment of the cerebral haemodynamics. This article discusses the aims, indications, the technical aspects, scanning protocol, standard procedure, supplementary windows, normal anatomy and measurement of common structures.

Cranial ultrasound (CUS) is an extremely valuable tool for the evaluation of the brain during the first year of life. It is used to look for haemorrhage or a hypoxic-ischemic event in the neonate, to exclude and monitor hydrocephalus, brain malformations, etc. (1).

2021年11月1日 · Neonatal cranial US is an essential primary diagnostic screening tool for intracranial pathologic conditions in infants. Knowledge of standard cranial US practice parameters, normal neonatal neuroanatomy, and the spectrum of imaging findings seen in routine pediatric radiology practice is fundamental for appropriate image acquisition and ...

Cranial Ultrasound is an integral part of assessment of neonates. It is a fast and affordable way to evaluate neonatal cranial structures in a healthcare setting as there is no need for sedation, portability, easiliy repeatable, lower costs, efficiency in obtaining imaging and lack of radiation.

Correct technique, taking advantage of multiple sonographic windows and variable frequencies of the ultrasound probes allows a detailed and comprehensive examination of brain parenchyma. In this review, we discuss the technique, normal and variant anatomy as well as disease entities of neonatal cranial sonography.

This book clearly explains the basics of cranial ultrasonography in the neonate, from patient preparation through to screening strategies and the classification of abnormalities. The aim is to enable the reader consistently to obtain images of the highest quality and to …

Neonatal cranial ultrasound has become an essential part of routine care in high-risk preterm and term neonates. Ultra-sound is noninvasive, requires no sedation, and is relatively inexpensive, making it the ideal primary diagnostic screen-ing tool for intracranial pathology.
