A complete examination typically requires a minimum of captured through multiple acoustic windows. Acoustic Windows :
Neonatal Cranial Ultrasonography (cUS) is the primary bedside tool for evaluating the brain in newborns, favored for its portability, lack of ionizing radiation, and ability to perform serial monitoring.
: Within the first 4–7 days post-birth to detect early hemorrhage.
: Use a high-frequency 7.5–10 MHz curved array probe for routine scans. Higher frequencies (up to 18 MHz) or linear probes are recommended for superficial structures and preterm infants.
Guidelines from the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM) and BMUS recommend cUS for:
