Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Pediatric Radiology
  • Neuroimaging

Background:

  • Sonography is a proven, non-invasive imaging modality for the infant brain.
  • Early and accurate diagnosis is crucial for managing neurological conditions in neonates and infants.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive overview of sonography in infant neuroimaging.
  • To detail the application of sonography in preterm infants.
  • To discuss the utility of sonography in various clinical scenarios, including its combination with CT.

Main Methods:

  • Review of established sonographic techniques for infant brain assessment.
  • Discussion of specific protocols for imaging preterm infants.
  • Integration of clinical case examples and imaging findings.

Main Results:

  • Sonography offers excellent visualization of the infant brain structures.
  • Specific sonographic findings and their significance in preterm neonates are highlighted.
  • The versatility of sonography in conjunction with CT for complex cases is demonstrated.

Conclusions:

  • Sonography is a primary imaging tool for the infant brain, particularly in preterm neonates.
  • The technique is valuable across a spectrum of clinical indications.
  • Sonography complements other imaging modalities like CT for comprehensive patient evaluation.
