Bedside CEUS is an easily obtainable brain-imaging modality that has the potential to effectively identify infants and neonates with evolving brain injury. A larger prospective study evaluating the correlation between CEUS findings and the reference standard of diffusion- and perfusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging is needed to establish it as a diagnostic tool.
