title: Imaging of the neonatal central nervous system.
abstract: This article presents some of the important technical and clinical evaluation of the immature and developing central nervous system. Emphasis is given to ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging. It is our hope that these principles will assist in the evaluation of the neonate and young infant with neurologic problems requiring neurosurgical consultation and intervention.
