Fetal Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) complements ultrasound for prenatal diagnosis. It improves the evaluation of fetal abnormalities, aiding in timely postnatal treatment.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Prenatal Diagnosis
  • Fetal Medicine

Background:

  • Ultrasonography is standard for prenatal screening but often lacks diagnostic detail.
  • Fetal MRI is emerging as a valuable tool to supplement ultrasound findings.
  • Its application has expanded beyond cerebral abnormalities to other fetal areas.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the utility of fetal MRI in diagnosing congenital malformations.
  • To assess MRI's effectiveness in characterizing fetal abnormalities.
  • To highlight MRI's role in improving postnatal treatment planning.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized fast T2-, T1-weighted, and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) sequences.
  • Leveraged MRI's wide field of view and excellent soft tissue contrast.

  • Applied MRI for in vivo investigation of fetal brain maturation, chest, and abdomen.

    • Main Results:

    • MRI accurately diagnosed congenital diaphragmatic hernia and assessed pulmonary growth impacts.
    • Identified other pulmonary malformations like cystic adenomatoid malformation and bronchogenic cysts.
    • DWI sequences enabled rapid renal position determination and diagnosis of renal agenesis.

    Conclusions:

    • Fetal MRI provides comprehensive evaluation of fetal malformations, comparable to postnatal examinations.
    • It offers logistical advantages by eliminating the need to transport newborns.
    • Prenatal MRI significantly aids in planning adequate postnatal treatment for newborns with malformations.
