Routine brain imaging to detect injuries affecting preterm infants is used to predict long-term outcomes and identify complications that might necessitate an intervention. Although magnetic resonance imaging may be indicated in some specific cases, head ultrasound is the most widely used technique and, because of portability and ease of access, is the best modality for routine imaging. Routine head ultrasound examination is recommended for all infants born at or before 31+6 weeks gestation. For preterm neonates born between 32+0 to 36+6 weeks gestation, routine head ultrasound is recommended only in presence of risk factors for intracranial hemorrhage or ischemia. Brain imaging in the first 7 to 14 days postbirth is advised to detect most germinal matrix and intraventricular hemorrhages. Repeat imaging at 4 to 6 weeks of age is recommended to detect white matter injury.
