Neurosonoscopy (infant head sonographic examination) is a safe, harmless, and painless diagnostic method that uses ultrasound waves to obtain images of the patient's brain.
Neurosonoscopy allows for the evaluation of infant brain anatomy, development, congenital anomalies, cerebrospinal fluid circulation, oxygen deprivation suffered during pregnancy and childbirth, hemorrhages, and infections. The examination can be performed until the closure of the fontanelle, which typically occurs by one year of age but can happen between six months and eighteen months.
The neurosonoscopy examination method is harmless to the child's body and can be repeated multiple times if necessary.
