Myelination
How does a T-1 MRI appear for a newborn
GM white and WM gray
How does a T-2 MRI appear for a newborn
GM gray and WM white
Myelination of corticospinal tracts inhibits what actions of the brain stem
Mediated reflexes
What can be indicated if reflexes are persistent
Delay or failure in myelination, decreased cortical inhibition
What syndrome is associated with cortical-brain stem network abnormalities
SIDS
