Abstract

Objectives: Bedside sonographic opthalmic ultrasound measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) is an easy, portabl, noninvasive and a radiation free technique to determine increased intracranial pressure. This prospective, multicenter study was aimed to establish the range of normal values for ONSD in preterm and term newborns with a large study population.
