Description

<p>　Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy can cause significant and life-long neurological disability. MR imaging is considered an excellent tool for visualizing permanent brain damage and also predicting clinical and neurological long-term outcomes. MR imaging is increasingly used as an indicator of long term outcomes for asphyxiated newborns. In this review, we discuss the indication, scan techniques and timing, and interpretation of MRI at the very early period of newborns with neonatal asphyxia.</p>
