Abstrakt:	A study conducted at Chaim Sheba Medical Center in Israel has found an association between subtle changes in T2 white matter hyper-intense signals (WMHSs) detected in fetal brain magnetic resonance imaging (fbMRI) and congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection. The study compared children with congenital CMV infection and neurodevelopmental outcomes and hearing deficits with and without WMHSs. The researchers found that valganciclovir treatment may have a protective effect on fetuses with WMHSs by improving neurodevelopmental outcomes. However, WMHSs were not associated with neurodevelopmental outcomes or hearing deficits. [Extracted from the article]
