We have correlated data on neuroanatomical organization and magnetic resonance
imaging of transient fetal zones shown to contain connectivity elements (growing axons …

The human brain develops slowly and over a long period of time which lasts for almost three
decades. This enables good spatio-temporal resolution of histogenetic and neurogenetic …

Early brain development, from the embryonic period to infancy, is characterized by rapid
structural and functional changes. These changes can be studied using structural and …

The developing human cerebrum displays age-specific changes in its patterns of lamination.
Among these, the subplate zone is the most prominent transient compartment because …

Objective. To compare findings on hard copies of cranial ultrasound (US) and magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) obtained between birth and term in a group of preterm infants …

Fetal MR imaging is an increasingly available technique used to evaluate the fetal brain and
spine. This is made possible by recent advances in technology, such as rapid pulse …

To define magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) appearances of the brain in extremely preterm
infants between birth and term, a sequential cohort of infants born at a gestational age< 30 …

Coakley et al. tially cause acoustic damage to the fetus. Two reports from the United
Kingdom [24, 25] provide reassuring clinical and experimental evidence that the risk of …
