Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder in a Newborn
Cureus, 2022 Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) can be suspected in newborns based on the maternal history of alcohol use during pregnancy and compelling physical attributes present at birth. The infrequency with which it is assessed during infancy makes FASD evaluation in newborns a formidable diagnostic challenge. Our objective was to evaluate a three-day-old

Neuroimaging and fetal alcohol spectrum disorders [PDF]
Developmental Disabilities Research Reviews, 2009 AbstractThe detrimental effects of prenatal alcohol exposure on the developing brain include structural brain anomalies as well as cognitive and behavioral deficits. Initial neuroimaging studies of fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirmed previous autopsy reports of overall reduction in brain volume and ...
