Fetal brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly used to detect brain injuries like hypoxia-ischemia and infections. Advanced MRI techniques, including diffusion imaging, improve data collection for diagnosing fetal brain damage.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Radiology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Fetal brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) indications are expanding.
  • Fetal brain injury is the third leading indication for fetal brain MRI.
  • Optimal MRI techniques are crucial for comprehensive fetal brain assessment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the role of advanced MRI techniques in diagnosing fetal brain injury.
  • To detail the various causes and MRI findings associated with fetal brain damage.
  • To compare acute and chronic responses in fetal brain injury.

Main Methods:

  • Standard fetal brain MRI protocol includes T1 and T2 weighted images.
  • Diffusion-weighted imaging can be routinely incorporated.
  • Monovoxel proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy is a research-level technique.

Main Results:

  • Fetal brain injury encompasses conditions like hypoxia-ischemia, congenital infections, and malformations.
  • MRI findings reveal acute or chronic lesions, often in combination.
  • Chronic responses are more frequently observed in fetal brains than acute responses.

Conclusions:

  • Advanced MRI techniques, including diffusion imaging, enhance the evaluation of fetal brain injury.
  • Understanding MRI findings is key to diagnosing diverse fetal brain pathologies.
  • Fetal brain injury assessment benefits from routine use of advanced imaging protocols.
