Objective To explore the value of susceptibility weighted imaging(SWI) in the clinical application of MRI examination in neonatal intracranial hemorrhage. Methods Retrospective analysis of 48 cases of neonatal intracranial hemorrhage in our hospital from January 2012 to June 2016 were collected and diagnosed as intracranial hemorrhage. Results Among the 48 cases of intracranial hemorrhage, 26 cases (54.2%) showed a slightly higher signal of T1WI.,T2WI showed low signal, FLAIR showed low signal or high signal, SWI showed low signal, part of SWI showed more lesions, In 22 cases (45.8%), only SWI showed a low signal. Conclusion SWI sequence is more sensitive than the conventional MR sequence to show the micro hemorrhage, to make up for the deficiency of conventional MR sequence, It plays an important role in judging the intracranial hemorrhage of the newborn and guiding the clinical treatment.
