In utero life and particularly fetal brain development and fetal behavior and more specifically assessment and imaging of the fetal nervous system, is a field of great interest in perinatal medicine, with many unanswered questions. Human brain development is a very complex, but also extremely structured process commencing the first weeks after conception and continuing for a very long time, even throughout adult life. As already mentioned fetal neurobehavior can be affected by many parameters and can be altered by environmental, racial, and maternal factors, by maternal disease, administration of drugs and neurotrophic agents, and many other factors. We analyze some special circumstances that affect fetal neurobehavior. © Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers. |
