Abstract

In neuro-paediatry, echography is one of the easiest examinations to conduct. It is one of the most bearable, least traumatic and most informative. Furthermore, by utilizing the fontanelle window, brain structure can be discerned. In the light of these 75 observations, the authors establish echo-anatomical correlations and diagnostic strategy.
