Download or read book Neonatal Imaging written by Jeanne Hill and published by . This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neonates may be affected by a wide variety of conditions, ranging from prematurity to congenital anomalies to acquired illnesses. Each of these vulnerable infants require a heightened level of evaluation and care, in which imaging plays a vital role. Multiple imaging examinations are often necessary to aid in diagnosis and help guide clinical management.The purpose of this book is to provide a better understanding of the basics of imaging and the language of radiology to aid clinicians in the evaluation of neonates. Neonatal Imaging places particular emphasis on radiography and sonography, two of the principle imaging modalities used in everyday neonatal care. A sound appreciation of why images look the way they do will help readers learn how to recognize abnormalities independently and gain a deeper understanding of the diagnostic workups of sick infants.Neonatal Imaging presents many excellent examples of imaging studies you can expect to see in a neonatal intensive care unit or a newborn nursery. Although we discuss basic imaging principles, this book is not an exhaustive review of the subject and does not cover many important topics that are beyond its scope. Therefore, be sure to consult your institution¿s radiologists to confirm any findings you discover, if you have questions regarding the appropriate utilization of imaging, and in complex cases.
Download or read book MRI of the Neonatal Brain written by Mary A. Rutherford and published by Saunders Limited.. This book was released on 2002 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MRI OF THE NEONATAL BRAIN, 4TH EDITION provides a comprehensive and integrated approach to the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain in neonatology. MRI is becoming increasingly available to clinicians and has been shown to have major advantages over ultrasound as an aid to diagnosis. MRI OF THE NEONATAL BRAIN, 4TH EDITION is divided into four major parts. Part I covers the technical aspects, explaining how MRI works and advising on how to achieve the best possible image with minimal sedation of the neonate. Part II illustrates the normal anatomy and development of the neonatal brain. Part III is a short section on the pathological processes underlying brain disorders in the neonate. Part IV, the largest section of the book, discusses the most common disorders seen in the newborn infant, and contains a series of case studies with discussions, questions and answers.
Download or read book Transfontanellar Doppler Imaging in Neonates written by Alain Couture and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines in detail the role of transfontanellar pulsed and color Doppler imaging in the fetus and neonate. After an introductory chapter on the technical aspects of Doppler ultrasonography, its use in the normal neonate is considered. Results of the hemodynamic evaluation of 491 newborns aged from 32 weeks of gestation to 9 months by means of pulsed and color Doppler are reported. Normal values of the resistive index as determined by this technique are documented, and systolic, diastolic, and mean velocities in seven different vessels are presented. It is concluded that Doppler ultrasonography enables reliable analysis of arterial and venous velocities. Subsequent chapters examine the use of transfontanellar Doppler imaging in a variety of commonly encountered pathological conditions, including intracranial hemorrhage, hydrocephalus, hypoxic-ischemic brain damage, pericerebral collections, sinus thrombosis, intacranial infections and brain malformations.
