Reference Charts for Neonatal Cranial Volume Based on 3D Laser Scanning to Monitor Head Growth

Background: Postnatal brain growth is an important predictor of neurodevelopmental outcome in preterm infants. A new reliable proxy for brain volume is cranial volume, which can be measured routinely by 3-D laser scanning. The aim of this study was to develop reference charts for normal cranial volu...
