Essential facts The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) first published guidelines on jaundice in newborn babies in 2010 and updated them in May. Jaundice is caused by raised bilirubin levels when red blood cells are broken down.

Hyperbilirubinemia is a common occurrence in neonates; it may be physiological or pathological. Conjugated hyperbilirubinemia may result from medical or surgical causes, and can result in irreversible liver damage if untreated. The aim of imaging is the timely diagnosis of surgical conditions like biliary atresia and choledochal cysts.

In 1956 Rolf Zetterström & Lars Ernster published their seminal observations demonstrating that bilirubin uncoupled oxidative phosphorylation in isolated mitochondria (1). On the other side of the Atlantic, Richard Day had found that bilirubin inhibited the uptake of oxygen by slices or homogenates of rat brain (2). These novel discoveries appeared

Pediatrics In Review, 1994
Jaundice in the newborn has presented a diagnostic challenge to clinicians for millennia. Because virtually every newborn infant has an elevated serum bilirubin in comparison with the normal adult and more than 50% are visibly jaundiced during the first week of life, the physician's first challenge is to differentiate pathology from variations within ...

Introduction This review stems from a long-standing interest on the part of both authors in the subject of neonatal jaundice. Advances in many different fields with a bearing on this problem have been so rapid that it seemed desirable to bring them into focus at this time, not because a final synthesis is as yet possible but because the remaining gaps

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1976
This article discusses the production, transport, and excretion of bilirubin in the newborn period. The causes, significance, and treatment of unconjugated and conjugated hyperbilirubinemia are different; and because this is so, it is important to review the main causes and management of unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. Conjugated hyperbilirubinemia in

Neonatal Nonhemolytic Jaundice
New England Journal of Medicine, 1975NUMEROUS causes of nonhemolytic jaundice are encountered during the first month of life. Two groups of patients are distinguished: those with unconjugated and those with conjugated hyperbilirubinemia. Unconjugated Hyperbilirubinemia (Table 1) "Physiologic jaundice" is the most common form of unconjugated, nonhemolytic hyperbilirubinemia in the neonatal

Phototherapy for Neonatal Jaundice
Clinics in Perinatology, 1991Exchange transfusion for severe neonatal jaundice is a tedious and expensive procedure with high morbidity and mortality rates, and is followed by a prompt and marked bilirubin rebound. It has largely been replaced by phototherapy, which though more gradual in its effect results in a prolonged reduction of the bilirubin concentration.

NeoReviews, 2007
Cleavage of the alpha-methene bridge of heme by membrane-bound heme oxygenase yields equimolar amounts of biliverdin, carbon monoxide, and reduced iron. Biliverdin is catalyzed by biliverdin reductase to bilirubin. The process occurs in all nucleated cells except mature anucleated red blood cells. Neonates in whom bilirubin production is increased tend
