Infants whose skull bones have not yet fused can undergo cranial ultrasonography at CareWell Diagnostix. The test aims to identify any issues that may arise during the delivery process, such as intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) or periventricular leukomalacia (PVL). A higher likelihood of a child being disabled may result from these issues.

A cranial ultrasound may be performed to assess the size of a growing baby’s skull. Also, the test can detect infections in and around the brain, including meningitis and encephalitis. Another possibility is the evaluation of congenital hydrocephalus and other congenital disabilities affecting the brain.

F.A.Qs

Frequently Asked
Questions

Is it safe to do a cranial ultrasound on a baby?

Ultrasound does not employ ionizing radiation, is noninvasive, and is safe.

What is the optimal time to conduct a cranial ultrasound?

Scanning is most effective around 72 hours after delivery (3). A second round of cranial sonographic screening should be performed between 4 and 6 weeks of age, and all at-risk infants should get an ultrasound between 7 and 10 days of gestation (7,11).

In what ways does cranial ultrasonography fall short?

When comparing preterm and full-term infants, the latter’s brains are marginally more straightforward to see with cUS.
