dc.description.abstractA prospective study was performed on 44 patients (newborn to one year old) with acute bacterial meningitis. Sonograms were obtained within 72 hours of diagnosis, and repeated on 7th, 14th or at an early date, if required. The spectrum of sonographic features of meningitis included normal scan (35.4%), echogenic sulci (63.7%) and parenchyma (29.5%), ventriculomegaly (59%), ventriculitis (35%), pseudo-porencephalic cyst (4.4%), extra axial fluid collection (4.4%), encephalomalacia (2.2%) and cerebral abscess (2.2%) in patients.en_US
