What Are the Limitations of Ultrasound Imaging in Neonates?
Despite its advantages, ultrasound imaging has some limitations:
1. Operator Dependency: The quality of the images and the accuracy of the diagnosis can vary based on the skill and experience of the operator. 2. Limited Penetration: High-frequency transducers have limited penetration depth, which can be a challenge in imaging deeper structures. 3. Artifact Production: Artifacts can sometimes obscure important details and lead to misdiagnosis.
