  • Title: The challenges of neonatal magnetic resonance imaging.
    Author: Arthurs OJ, Edwards A, Austin T, Graves MJ, Lomas DJ.
    Journal: Pediatr Radiol; 2012 Oct; 42(10):1183-94. PubMed ID: 22886375.
    Abstract:
    Improved neonatal survival rates and antenatal diagnostic imaging is generating a growing demand for postnatal MRI examinations. Neonatal brain MRI is now becoming standard clinical care in many settings, but with the exception of some research centres, the technique has not been optimised for imaging neonates and small children. Here, we review some of the challenges involved in neonatal MRI, including recent advances in overall MR practicality and nursing practice, to address some of the ways in which the MR experience could be made more neonate-friendly.
