Abstract
The objective of this chapter is to show the readers how to operate tanscranial ultrasound scanning, to recognize the normal anatomic structure through ultrasonic image, and to understand the clinical application value of each section. The standardized sections can get through anterior fontanelle or temporal area by sagittal, oblique, or coronary scanning of lateral ventricle or thalamus. The schematic diagram-matched each ultrasonic scanning plane is shown. The contents contain the scanning method, section structures, measuring method, reference values and clinical application value of the sections of the craniocerebral.
