Abstract:Objectives
Neonatal MRI is usually performed under deep sedation, which is challenging—especially in low-weight premature patients. In addition, long-term side effects, such as neurotoxicity, are of concern. An alternative to sedation is to induce natural sleep by feeding and immobilising the child, the “feed-and-wrap” technique (FWT). The objective of this study was to evaluate differences in image quality between neonates examined under sedation and by using the FWT during the first four months… Show more
