Neonatal cranial ultrasound: A review article

Cranial ultrasound (CUS) is a bedside, safe and reliable imaging procedure. It can assist in the early diagnosis, management and prognostication of most preterm and full-term prenatal, perinatal and postnatal neurological insults. Moreover, it is a cost-effective procedure that gives a very high accuracy not far from that of the more sophisticated procedures such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. However, continuous training and competency assurance are needed, as CUS is operator-dependent imaging that needs a considerable training for the best results. In this article, we reviewed the advantages, applications and accuracy of CUS. In addition, we shed light on the benefit of having CUS in house before exposing the newborn infant to the risks of the other more complicated imaging techniques.
