Cerebral Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Ultrasonography Findings After Neonatal Hypoglycemia

Abstract

Postnatal full-term MRI and US scans showed abnormalities four times more often after transient neonatal hypoglycemia than in the healthy control group. However, most often lesions were absent 2 months later. The clinical relevance of these abnormal findings remains to be clarified with detailed neurologic examinations and follow-up.
