Abstract

HIE is a brain dysfunction caused by a reduction in the supply of oxygen to the brain and other organs (hypoxia), compounded by low blood flow to vital organs (ischemia). Encephalopathy refers to any condition that results from reduced blood and oxygen supply to the brain. HIE is the common cause of cerebral palsy. Cerebral palsy is defined as a group of permanent disorders of the development of movement and posture, causing activity limitation, that are due to non-progressive disturbances that occurred in the developing fetal or infant brain. Early assessment of severity of HIE can help proper parent counseling and early institution of stimulation therapy for better development of infant. So there is a necessity to study the importance of DTI in detecting HIE babies within 14 days of their life.
