Abstract
A high-resolution ultrasound device has shown great accuracy in detecting suspected meningitis in newborns and infants, potentially offering a noninvasive alternative to lumbar puncture, the traditional diagnostic method. This is the main conclusion of an international study led by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal), in collaboration with hospitals in Spain, Mozambique, and Morocco. The results have been published in the journal Pediatric Research.
