The new edition of this popular textbook of pediatric radiology presents a clear and concise overview of pediatric disease in the neonate, infant, and young child. Organized by organ system, each chapter covers normal anatomy and variations, congenital anomalies, and common disease processes. Many normal films are included as a basis for understanding pathology and recognizing normal variants that are easily confused with abnormal findings. New to the Fifth Edition: an appendix of differential diagnosis/summary tables for quick reference, expanded chapters on the abdomen and head, and material on 3-D imaging and HRCT.

MRI OF THE NEONATAL BRAIN, 4TH EDITION provides a comprehensive and integrated approach to the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain in neonatology. MRI is becoming increasingly available to clinicians and has been shown to have major advantages over ultrasound as an aid to diagnosis. MRI OF THE NEONATAL BRAIN, 4TH EDITION is divided into four major parts. Part I covers the technical aspects, explaining how MRI works and advising on how to achieve the best possible image with minimal sedation of the neonate. Part II illustrates the normal anatomy and development of the neonatal brain. Part III is a short section on the pathological processes underlying brain disorders in the neonate. Part IV, the largest section of the book, discusses the most common disorders seen in the newborn infant, and contains a series of case studies with discussions, questions and answers.

As outlined by Dr. V. Donoghue in her preface, recent advances in the therapeutic manage ment of neonates with low gestational age have resulted in a significantly high er survival rate and better outcome for these newborns. Lung and heart malformations or acquired diseases represent a major part of the life threatening conditions in this group of critically ill patients, and radiological imaging is one of the main tools to define the appropriate therapeutic approach. This book not only provides an excellent update on the embryological and anatomical aspects of neonatal ehest conditions but also offers a unique and comprehensive overview of our current knowledge and of recent progress in imaging techniques of the neonatal ehest. Dr. Donoghue has been successful in engaging a number of outstandingly qualified international experts to contribute to this work, and I would like to congratulate her on the excellent coordination and editing of this book. I am confident that this outstanding volume will meet with great interest not only from general as well as specialised paediatric radiologists but also from neonatologists and paediatricians. I hope it will enjoy the same success as many previous volumes in this senes. Leuven ALBERT 1. BAERT Preface In the past two deeades there have been extraordinary advanees in the treatment of eritically ill neonates, resulting in improvements in their survival and a signifieant deerease in morbid ity. Infants of very low gestational ages are now surviving.

Neonates may be affected by a wide variety of conditions, ranging from prematurity to congenital anomalies to acquired illnesses. Each of these vulnerable infants require a heightened level of evaluation and care, in which imaging plays a vital role. Multiple imaging examinations are often necessary to aid in diagnosis and help guide clinical management.The purpose of this book is to provide a better understanding of the basics of imaging and the language of radiology to aid clinicians in the evaluation of neonates. Neonatal Imaging places particular emphasis on radiography and sonography, two of the principle imaging modalities used in everyday neonatal care. A sound appreciation of why images look the way they do will help readers learn how to recognize abnormalities independently and gain a deeper understanding of the diagnostic workups of sick infants.Neonatal Imaging presents many excellent examples of imaging studies you can expect to see in a neonatal intensive care unit or a newborn nursery. Although we discuss basic imaging principles, this book is not an exhaustive review of the subject and does not cover many important topics that are beyond its scope. Therefore, be sure to consult your institution¿s radiologists to confirm any findings you discover, if you have questions regarding the appropriate utilization of imaging, and in complex cases.

This fully illustrated atlas and well-referenced text provides a comprehensive guide to brain imaging in newborn babies using ultrasound. The volume is unique because it includes examples of normal and abnormal appearances, illustrated from pathological specimens and diagrams of standard views, accompanied by full discussion and advice on prognosis. It also provides an introduction to the physics of ultrasound imaging and Doppler, advice on choosing equipment, guidance on ultrasound safe practice and the care of ill babies during scan examination. Advice on the value of Doppler examination of blood flow in the arteries is included, along with a guide to the prognosis of intracranial injury. The volume will be an essential source of reference and guidance for all who work in neonatal intensive care and for radiologists and radiographers.

This book clearly explains the basics of cranial ultrasonography in the neonate, from patient preparation through to screening strategies and the classification of abnormalities. The aim is to enable the reader consistently to obtain images of the highest quality and to interpret them correctly. Essential information is provided both on the procedure itself and on the normal ultrasound anatomy. The standard technique is described and illustrated, and emphasis is placed on the value of supplementary acoustic windows. Attention is also drawn to maturational changes in the neonatal brain and to the limitations of cranial ultrasonography. Frequently occurring abnormalities are described and classifications for these abnormalities are provided. A new classification for neonatal cerebellar hemorrhages is introduced. In this third edition, all ultrasound images have beena replaced, reflecting the improvements in image quality. An entirely new chapter is devoted to Doppler ultrasonography. The illustrations have been improved and new illustrations were added. The reader will have access to highly informative videos on the cranial ultrasound procedure, available online via SpringerLink. The compact design of the book makes it an ideal and handy reference that will guide the novice in understanding the essentials of the technique while also providing useful information for the more experienced practitioner.
