Neonatal sonography is a very important and indispensible tool for evaluating pre term and
term neonates for intracranial pathology. It is readily available, portable, relatively inexpensive and safe. Premature infants are at a heightened risk for Intracranial hemorrhage. Up to 67% of pre term infants born before 32 weeks gestational age develop intracranial bleeds. There is also a variety of intracranial pathologies that can be detected via Ultrasound like; Hydrocephalus, Vascular anomalies, developmental abormalities, and conditions related to infectious processes.
