Re: Hanger in Connecticut?

[Guest guest]

I think you're right that it is too small to do the ultrasound, but

not closed. My daugther had a giant head that grew quickly. There was

some concern of hydrocephalus due to the growth, but no delays. So

they chose a cranial ultrasound to have a look. My doc was going to

do a CT scan next if needed. At 6 mo they could see well enough that

they knew things were fine. My doc felt the CT scan wasn't needed and

we could skip the radiation and possible sedation. However lots of

babies get scanned to rule out cranio (fusion) and they are fine.

When they scheduled the ultrasound they told me it might not work if

they couldn't see enough of the brain.
