AB Continued  improvements  in  neuroimaging  and  neuromonitoring  have  added  insight  into  the  developing  brain  and  helped  the  clinician  to  identify  infants  at  risk  for  poor  neurologic  outcome.  However,  available  techniques  continue  to  be  limited  in  their  ability  to  predict  neurodevelopmental  outcomes  accurately.  Moreover,  given  the  enormous  plasticity  of  the  neonate's  brain,  even  significant  detectable  defects  may  result  in  “normal”  neurodevelopmental  outcomes.  Nevertheless,  imaging  and  monitoring  modalities  hold  future  promise  in  assisting  clinicians  to  better  identify  patients  at  risk  for  neurodevelopmental  sequelae.
