Perinatal post-mortem radiography--experience with 2500 cases.

G A Foote, A J Wilson, J H Stewart

    The British Journal of Radiology
    |May 1, 1978
    PubMed
    Summary

    Post-mortem radiography of neonates aids in detecting subtle abnormalities missed during autopsy. This imaging technique is valuable for identifying causes of perinatal death, especially when autopsy permission is denied.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Perinatal Pathology
    • Forensic Radiology

    Background:

    • Routine post-mortem radiographic examinations are crucial in perinatal pathology.
    • Identifying congenital abnormalities and causes of perinatal death is essential.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the utility of post-mortem radiography in perinatal examinations.
    • To assess the role of contrast agents in detecting congenital abnormalities.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of 2500 routine post-mortem radiographic examinations of neonates.
    • Analysis of radiographic findings for abnormalities contributing to death.
    • Evaluation of contrast agent use in specific cases.

    Main Results:

    • Post-mortem radiography effectively detects abnormalities missed during autopsy.
    • Contrast agents enhance the evaluation of cardiovascular congenital abnormalities.
    • Radiography is particularly useful when autopsy permission is restricted.

    Conclusions:

    • Post-mortem radiography is a valuable tool in perinatal death investigations.
    • It aids in statistical data collection and provides teaching/research material.
    • The procedure improves diagnostic accuracy in perinatal pathology.
