MRI of Neonatal Encephalopathy

We present the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in neonatal encephalopathy, including hypoxic–ischaemic encephalopathy, perinatal/neonatal stroke, metabolic encephalopathy from inborn errors of metabolism, congenital central nervous system infections and birth trauma. The applications of ad...

Description
Summary:We present the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in neonatal encephalopathy, including hypoxic–ischaemic encephalopathy, perinatal/neonatal stroke, metabolic encephalopathy from inborn errors of metabolism, congenital central nervous system infections and birth trauma. The applications of advanced MRI techniques, such as diffusion-weighted imaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopy are emphasized.
