A Neurosonogram is performed to evaluate the brain’s structure and blood flow in infants.
What is a Neurosonogram?
A Neurosonogram uses ultrasound to take pictures of an infant’s brain. The doctor moves a wand gently over the baby’s soft spots to check the brain’s structure and blood flow.
Why get a Neurosonogram?
We do this test to see if there are any problems with the baby’s brain like bleeding, fluid build up, or developmental issues. It can help doctors diagnose conditions.
What happens during the test?
Your little one will lie comfortably while the doctor uses the wand. It only takes 5-10 minutes. Depending on the findings’ complexity, the scan may take more or less time. The ultrasound creates images of the brain in real time so doctors can check for any issues.
Who needs a Neurosonogram?
Babies who are showing signs like unusual head growth, seizures, or delays in reaching milestones may need this test. The images can help doctors understand what’s going on and come up with a treatment plan.
Preparation: No special preparation is needed for your little one’s brain scan. Just dress them comfortably.
What to Expect During the Scan?
Doctor will apply some cool gel to baby’s head. This allows the transducer to glide smoothly to get clear pictures. It doesn’t hurt at all and is over quickly. They’ll move the wand around to view different parts of the brain.
After the Scan
Once we’re finished, you can head out. The doctor will review the results with you at you and your doctor.
Reports
You’ll have a hard copy of your reports ready within 10-15 minutes after the scan is done.
