Hi,
Based on the history you have shared, MRi may be asked for monitoring of brain development and structural deformities. She may need continous follow up with a paediatric neurologist and EEG may also be needed for brain activity monitoring.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Saddiq Ulabidin
