Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The authors compare advantages and disadvantages of CT-scan and two-dimensional echoencephalography in examination of intracranial space of small babies. CT is more precise and complex, but it requires anesthesia and transport (CT-scanners are only in regional centers), moreover the child is endangered by irradiation. Echoencephalography is not so descriptive, but is noninvasive, simple, mobile, cheaper, enables to follow the dynamics of the process, examination in three planes and can be very useful during the operation.
