[|AI|]  Thank you for asking on Chat Doctor. Although the details provided by you are not adequate, I will try to explain the possibilities. Newborn brains are in the process of development especially in preterm. The inner lining of the brain is very thin. As the development of the brain progresses, a substance called myelin is formed and acts as an insulator of the nerve fibers and helps them in functioning. But in preterm sometime bleeding may occur below the thin lining or due to meningitis and as there is healing, the deposition of myelin occurs improperly. Myelin appears while on the imaging of the brain and hence probably the white patches over the brain have appeared. The blood or blood fraction transfusions may have been given for anemia of prematurity or in order to control infection. Hope that helps. Feel free to revert in case of further queries if any.
