Cranial Ultrasound in High Risk Neonates
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 10
Abstract
Cranial ultrasonography has become an essential diagnostic tool in modern neonatology for depicting normal anatomy and pathological changes in neonatal brain. In the neonate many sutures and fontanels are open and these can be used as acoustic windows to “look” into the brain .It’s a reliable tool for detecting congenital and acquired abnormalities of the perinatal brain and most frequent patterns of brain injury in preterm and full term neonate1. In this observational prospective study total 201 high risk neonates fulfilling inclusion criteria are studied in our NICU, a tertiary care hospital, to find out the role of cranial ultrasound in high risk neonates from October 2014 to September 2016. Cranial ultrasound was done in these patients and results reviewed.
