A. State-of-the-art ultrasound imaging of the premature infant brain
C. Veyrac, M. Saguintaah, C. Baud, A. Couture; Montpellier/FR
Learning Objectives:
1. To describe and illustrate the ultrasound pattern of brain lesions in premature infants.
2. To demonstrate how colour and pulsed Doppler provides additional information to the morphological
assessment.
3. To discuss the timing of sonographic follow-up in brain damaged premature infants.

B. Imaging of the term infant with hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy-US and MRI
E. Twomey; Dublin/IE
Learning Objectives:
1. To demonstrate the patterns of ischaemia encountered and to correlate with the duration and intensity of
hypoxia.
2. To correlate acute ultrasound fi ndings with those seen on diffusion weighted MRI and T1/T2 weighted
MRI.
3. To compare imaging fi ndings in the neonatal period with follow-up imaging studies and
neuropsychological outcome at two years.
