title: Complex investigation of impaired brain function during the first postnatal months.
abstract: Complex diagnostic batteries have been applied in 600 neonates and young infants to verify suspected cerebral lesions. A detailed longitudinal study of visual, auditive, nutritive and motor behaviour as well as neuroradiology are necessary for differentiating between normal variations in brain maturity and early symptoms of a sustained brain lesion leading to defective brain development.
