AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: Primary Objective: 1. To assess the Importance of Neursonogram as screening for high risk neonates. Secondary Objective: To assess neuroimaging morphology of various cerebral lesions and correlate clinically. RESULTS: 100 high risk neonates who were subjected to neurosonography which resulted in 26 % of neonates had abnormal findings, out of which 12 % with evidence of intracranial bleed, 8 % hyperechogenic thalami, 2 % with definite HIE, 4 % had cerebral oedema. CONCLUSION: Neurosonogram is a vital investigatory and screening modality in NICU and effectively documents brain abnormalities and cerebral injury
