Prevalence and evolution of intracranial hemorrhage in asymptomatic term infants.

Background And Purpose: Subdural hemorrhage (SDH) is often associated with infants experiencing nonaccidental injury (NAI). A study of the appearance and natural evolution of these birth-related hemorrhages, particularly SDH, is important in the forensic evaluation of NAI. The purpose of this study was to determine the normal incidence, size, distribution, and natural history of SDH in asymptomatic term neonates as detected by sonography (US) and MR imaging within 72 hours of birth.
