Using cerebral ultrasound effectively in the newborn infant
چکیده انگلیسی

Cranial ultrasound is the most available and easily repeatable technique for imaging the neonatal brain. Its quality and diagnostic accuracy depend on various factors; the suitability of the ultrasound machine for neonatal cranial work, the use of optimal settings and probes, appropriate scanning protocols, the use of a variety of acoustic windows and, not least, the scanning experience of the examiner. Knowledge of normal anatomy and the echogenicities of different tissues in normal and pathological situations as well as familiarity with the physiological and pathological processes likely to be encountered is vital. This paper assesses the value and appropriate use, safety and diagnostic accuracy of modern, high-quality ultrasound in evaluating the brain of the preterm and term born infant. Issues of concern regarding teaching, supervision and experience of the examiner are also addressed.
