Brain Ultrafast Ultrasound Imaging

Congenital heart defects affect 1 in 100 births in France, with rising prevalence due to better care. Despite improved survival, 40% of children post-surgery face neurological impairments, and some of them show brain lesions. Causes include heart defects, genetic syndromes, and surgeries. Some heart defects and support systems increase cerebral risks. Monitoring cerebral perfusion is difficult to assess but emerging ultrafast ultrasound offers real-time, non-invasive blood flow insights.
