Sagittal transcranial ultrasound demonstrates echogenic material in the ventricles and at the caudothalamic groove consistent with grade 3 subependymal hemorrhage.
From the case:
Germinal matrix hemorrhage - grade 3

Sagittal and axial CT images demonstrate blood in the ventricles and at the left caudothalamic groove consistent with grade 3 subependymal hemorrhage.
Note: This case has been tagged as "legacy" as it no longer meets image preparation and/or other case publication guidelines.
Case Discussion
Grading of germinal matrix hemorrhage is simple and prognostically important:
- grade I
- restricted to subependymal region
- grade II
- extension into normal-sized ventricles
- grade III
- extension into dilated ventricles
- grade IV
- same as grade III but with parenchymal hemorrhage
