Evaluation of the relationship between cranial magnetic resonance imaging findings and clinical status in children with cerebral palsy

The most common cranial MRI pathology was PVL, and the presence of PVL and its grade might help clinically assess the patient’s CP type and level of mobilization. While pathology was observed mostly in cranial MRI in cases of CP with similar clinical features, the fact that cranial MRI was completely normal for 14.5% of the cases suggests that there may be some pathologies that we could not identify with today’s imaging technology.
