Question

Boy, 13 days old, had oxygen deficiency at birth. Inquire about the normal range for the average white matter density CT value.

Answer

Hello, regarding your inquiry, the average white matter density CT value varies with age under normal circumstances. For newborns, this value may fluctuate and can be influenced by various factors, including birth weight, gestational age, and the presence of brain damage. Therefore, it is recommended that you take your child to the hospital for a detailed examination so that a professional physician can determine whether further treatment or observation is needed based on your child’s specific condition. In addition, consider adopting massage, acupuncture, and other methods, and combine them with oral neuro-nutritional medications for treatment. Generally speaking, the effect of simple neuro-nutritional medication treatment is limited, and it needs to be combined with other treatment methods. For children affected by neonatal diseases, parents should take their children to the doctor in a timely manner, avoid self-medication, and provide enough care and attention to help the child recover from the disease as soon as possible.
