Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: - Postnatal age at examination

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: - Abnormalities on cerebral ultrasound: all grades of intraventricular hemorrhage (according to classification of de Vries), periventricular leukomalacie (PVL according to classification of de Vries), cerebral infarction, hydrocephalus, hypoxic-ischemic lesions or structural anatomic problems - Craniospinal malformation - Chromosomal or syndromal abnormalities - Unclear/unknown GA - Other major birth defects - Absence of informed parental consent

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
- To establish new reference values that accurately reflect normal values of lateral ventricular size (ventricular index, anterior horn width and thalamo-occipital distance) in infants of varying gestational ages. - Compare these curves with the available data. - Investigate the influence of the way of delivery on ventricular size following birth.	—
