  • Title: The cranial index according to Cronqvist compared to echo-ventriculography for determination of hydrocephalus.
    Author: Bergström K, Jorulf H.
    Journal: Acta Radiol Diagn (Stockh); 1975 Mar; 16(2):123-8. PubMed ID: 1166803.
    Abstract:
    The Cronqvist cranial index with the normal values for different age groups according to Austin & Gooding is compared with the ventricular index estimated by ultrasound in a series of 166 neuropaediatric subjects aged 0 to 5 years. A large number of hydrocephalic patients has a normal cranial index. The cranial index alone is thus an unreliable method for the screening of hydrocephalus.
