View of cerebellum, 4th ventricle, foramen magnum
Cerebellar hemisphere closer to transducer will have best resolution, thus we image the cerebellum from both the right and left mastoid fontanelles
Lateral Ventricle -Frontal Horn -Body -Occipital Horn -Temporal Horn
-Choroid Plexus -Lateral Ventricles -Foramina of Monro -3rd Ventricle -Aqueduct of Sylvius -4th Ventricle -Foramina of Magendie and Luschka -Foramen Magnum
Typically up to 9 months or as long as fontanelle is open Use anterior fontanelle mostly, also transmastoid and
posterior for better visualization of the posterior fossa and 4th ventricle Highest frequency transducer to allow sufficient penetration and resolution (curved or vector), linear images to define superficial structures
