Abstract excerpt
Preterm birth is associated with a high incidence of neurodevelopmental deficits. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has proved to be a valuable tool for monitoring development in the preterm brain. We used a dedicated time-of-flight (TOF) magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) protocol at 3 Tesla (3T) optimized to assess morphological characteristics of the neonatal cerebral vessels associated with preterm birth in...
