Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Obstetrics
  • Fetal Medicine

Background:

  • Echography utilizes ultrasound waves for medical imaging.
  • Obstetric ultrasound is vital for detecting fetal abnormalities.
  • Prenatal diagnosis aids in planning infant care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the role of echography in prenatal diagnosis.
  • To emphasize the importance of evaluating fetal facial clefts.
  • To inform surgical planning and parental counseling.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing echography (ultrasound) for fetal imaging.
  • Focusing on the detection and anatomical evaluation of facial clefts.
  • Correlating imaging findings with clinical management.
