Neurosonography in full-term cerebral haemorrhage.
Full-term as well as preterm infants are liable to cerebral haemorrhage. Not all paediatricians are aware of this, but the availability of ultrasound in many general hospitals which have paediatric beds is alerting them to this possibility. This account draws on a two-year experience at a paediatric institute to which full-term infants with neurological symptoms were referred from a wide area. During this time 23 cases were diagnosed and cases illustrating the spectrum are presented.
