Abstract

Objective To explore values of SWI in detecting neonatal intracranial hemorrhage.Methods 51 neonates underwent conventional MRI(T1WI,T2WI) and SWI examination.Results 41 cases were found neonatal intracranial hemorrhage in SWI and only 29 cases were found in conventioanl MRI suquences.96 hemorrhagic lesions were detected on SWI images versus 65 lesions revealed on T1WI and 47 lesions on T2WI.Conclusion Compared with conventional MRI,SWI is an excellent new MR sequence for the diagnosis of neonatal intracranial hemorrhage and the detection of homorrhagic lesions.
