Ultrasound in Hydrocephalus
Figure hydr_23a_n.jpg and hydr_23b_n.jpg: Additional examinations in hydrocephalus in a 4-month-old premature infant with macrocrania following a perinatal hemorrhage.
Figure hydr_23a_n.jpg: Coronal ultrasound.
Figure hydr_23b_n.jpg: Parasagittal ultrasound. The abnormal shape and size of the lateral ventricles allow the diagnosis of hydrocephalus and its degree; e.g. ballooning of the anterior horns and increased thalamooccipital distance (> <).
