BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The DTI parameters (FA and ADC) reflect the properties of
the brain microstructure. Decreased anisotropy is a common feature of cerebral tissue …

Aim: To determine the altered pattern of fractional anisotropy (FA) and mean diffusivity (MD)
change in brain parenchyma in serially studied neonates with mild or moderate hypoxic …

OBJECTIVE. Apparent diffusion coefficients (ADC) that are measured by diffusion-weighted
imaging are reduced in severe white matter (WM) and in some severe basal ganglia and …

Neonatal hypoxic–ischemic encephalopathy is a major cause of brain damage in infants,
and is associated with periventricular white matter injury and chronic neurological …

Brain Damage - PMC Back to Top Skip to main content NIH NLM Logo Access keys NCBI …

Hypoxic–ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is the most common cause of neonatal acquired
brain injury. Although conventional MRI may predict neurodevelopmental outcomes …

With improvements in care of at-risk neonates, more and more children survive. This makes
it increasingly important to assess, soon after birth, the prognosis of children with hypoxic …

Background Diffusion-weighted imaging is a valuable tool in the assessment of the neonatal
brain, and changes in diffusion are seen in normal development as well as in pathological …

Background: Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) reflects the maturation of the brain
microstructure. Although preterm infants are at significant risk for altered brain …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) permits early detection
and quantification of hypoxic-ischemic (HI) brain lesions. Our aim was to assess the …
