Volumes (unit: milliliter) and Surfaces (unit: centimeter squared) were analyzed for differences between preterm (n = 24) and fullterm infants (n = 20) using ANCOVA. Results are given as mean ± standard deviation. p-Values are considered significant when printed in bold. ICC = intra-cranial cavity.
