Summary

This is a retrospective study based on the images contained in the database of the University Hospital of Amiens. There is no further examination. Electroencephalography (EEG) and Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS). These sources are widely used to specify the source of certain evoked potentials or to better define the sources of epileptic graphoelements, especially in the pre-surgical assessment of refractory epilepsies. It is therefore important that these regions are more widely available in the constitution of the world, and that they are suitable for use in the design of new technologies. Although MRI is the gold standard for soft tissue segmentation, it is not suitable for bone extraction; especially in the newborn or the bone is very thin. On the other hand, CTscan is an excellent method for extracting bone. The contrast between bone and soft tissue is excellent. In this case, with the CTscan, the fontanelles are identified as discontinuities between the images of the temporal scales.
