We propose a novel algorithm for the segmentation of newborn brain MRI, based on mathematical morphology. The algorithm combines image information with high-level anatomical knowledge to deal with the difficulties of newborn brain MRI segmentation (lower signal-to-noise ratio, reduced contrast and di...
However, the therapy of this type of hemorrhage is limited, and new strategies are needed to reduce hematoma expansion. Here we show that the meningeal lymphatics is a pathway to remove red blood cells from the brain’s ventricular system of male human, adult and newborn rodents and is a ...
Body length (including head) was on the 97th percentile. The cause of megalencephaly could not be identified. IGF I and II in serum were in the normal range for age. IGF II in CSF was 24 ng/ml compared with 10 ng/ml in a pool of CSF from controls of the same age. At autopsy...

If your baby's head circumference is much larger than average, it may be a sign of hydrocephalus, which is a buildup of fluid in and around the brain. This rare condition can increase the pressure in your baby's head. Other causes of a large head size are brain tumors or genetic cond...

If the neural tube does not close properly along its entire length, then a NTD will form at the open location. Nowadays, prevention measures consisting in folic acid supplementation and early diagnosis based on maternal blood screening (triple and quad screen), alpha-fetoprotein in amniotic fluid...
Extracerebral and posterior fossa subarachnoid fluid spaces are absent; the fourth ventricle is not visualized, typical of stigmata of a Chiari II malformation (white arrowhead). Severe microcephaly is evident. B, Axial image at 28 weeks’ gestational age near the vertex shows the posterior ...
You may be amazed by all the growth and changes you're seeing! Here are some highlights: Growth and Physical Development: It’s Normal for a Newborn to Look a Little “Odd” In the first few days after birth babies can lose a little weight—this is mostly excess body fluid. Most ...
