[Echoencephalographic indices in healthy children and age].
Five hundred and ninety-three healthy children and teenagers aged 2 to 20 years were studied echoencephalographically. Cranial anthropometry was also performed. Mean values of echoencephalographic findings for each age group were identified. These indices may be used in the future as a normal baseline helpful in the diagnosis of intracranial pathology. The age-related dynamic changes of the following parameters were examined: distances to the median complex (M-echo), echo-signal from the lateral ventricle opposite to the hemisphere being studied (ventricle echo--B-echo) to the final complex, as well as the width of ventricle III and the ventricular index. Age-associated correlation between echoencephalographic and anthropometric parameters was elucidated.
