Congenital malformations of the brain are important cause of preterm newborns,
children’s morbidity and mortality. The most common presentation of brain congenital
malformations is developmental delay, mental retardation and epilepsy which are the main
indications for neuroimaging exploration. MRI is radiological modality of choice for
examination and diagnosis of the brain congenital malformations. Compromise between
high-quality MR scans in pediatric neuroradiology and duration of MR examination is
achieved through application of specific MR protocols which depend on child’s age and
pathological findings. Based on the results, MRI protocols are proposed for optimal
exploration of endocranial structures in pediatric patients and made possible to appropriately
classify congenital malformations of the brain for further clinical evaluation, course and
prognosis illness.
