Alterations in the optic radiations of very preterm children—Perinatal predictors and relationships with visual outcomes

Alterations in the optic radiations of very preterm children—Perinatal predictors and relationships with visual outcomes

Children born very preterm (VPT) are at risk for visual impairments, the main risk factors being retinopathy of prematurity and cerebral white matter injury, however these only partially account for visual impairments in VPT children. This study aimed to compare optic radiation microstructure and vo...
