Characteristics of periventricular matrix vascularization in image computer transformation system.

Observations of periventricular matrix vascularization were performed. Following technics were used: injection Pickword's method, infrared, image computer analysis. Various transformations were applied; linear and mathematical morphology. The examined material consisted of 200 fetuses aged 4-8 months of gestation. Subependymally localized and sinusoidally extended vessels were observed. Arteries reaching the ventricular lumen were seen as anatomically and functionally terminal, dendroidally ramificating only at the periphery. The connections between vessels of periventricular matrix and those of surrounding white matter were evidentiated.
