Diffusion Weighted Imaging in Neonatal Encephalopathy: A Systematic Review, Megan Dibble, Mary I. O’Dea, Tim Hurley, Angela T. Byrne , Gabrielle Colleran, Eleanor J. Molloy and Arun L. W. Bokde

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) during the first few days of life can be used to assess brain injury in neonates with neonatal encephalopathy for outcome prediction. The goal of this review was to identify specific white matter tracts of interest that can be quantified by DTI as being altered in neonates with this condition, and to investigate its potential prognostic ability.
