    High-resolution spinal sonography effectively visualizes infant anatomy, detecting congenital malformations. This imaging method avoids radiation and invasive procedures, guiding further diagnostic steps when abnormalities are found.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric imaging
    • Diagnostic ultrasonography
    • Spinal anatomy

    Background:

    • Congenital spinal malformations require accurate early diagnosis.
    • Traditional imaging methods may involve ionizing radiation or invasive procedures.
    • Real-time sonography offers a non-invasive imaging modality.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the utility of high-resolution, real-time sonography for detailed spinal imaging in infants.
    • To assess the effectiveness of sonography in detecting congenital spinal anomalies.
    • To determine the role of sonography as a primary screening tool for infant spinal abnormalities.

    Main Methods:

    • High-resolution, real-time sonography was performed on the spines of 29 infants.
    • Transverse and longitudinal imaging planes were utilized.

  • Image analysis focused on osteochondral structures, spinal symmetry, cord, and spinal arteries.

    • Main Results:

    • Sonography revealed significant anatomical details in all infants, including nine with congenital malformations.
    • Transverse sections were optimal for identifying osteochondral anomalies and assessing symmetry.
    • Longitudinal sections provided detailed views of the spinal cord and arteries.

    Conclusions:

    • High-resolution, real-time sonography is a valuable tool for detailed infant spinal imaging.
    • This technique effectively detects congenital malformations and guides further investigations.
    • Normal sonographic findings obviate the need for ionizing radiation and invasive procedures.
