Abstract

Investigators from University of Melbourne, Monash Children's Hospital, Royal Children's Hospital & Murdoch Children's Research Institute sought to identify correlation between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics including white matter injury (WMI) in children with cerebral palsy (CP) and severity in motor outcomes later in life, irrespective of CP subtype.
