ACR Appropriateness Criteria Assessment of Fetal Well-Being.
Although there is limited evidence that antepartum testing decreases the risk for fetal death in low-risk pregnancies, women with high-risk factors for stillbirth should undergo antenatal fetal surveillance. The strongest evidence supporting antepartum testing pertains to pregnancies complicated by intrauterine fetal growth restriction secondary to uteroplacental insufficiency. The main ultraso...

OBJECTIVES To determine the most common indication for fetal MRI, and to correlate antenatal MRI with antenatal ultrasound ...
متن کاملPrenatal diagnosis of a suprasellar arachnoid cyst with 2- and 3-dimensional sonography and fetal magnetic resonance imaging: difficulties in management and review of the literature.
rachnoid cysts are intra-arachnoid sacs containing cerebrospinal fluid–like liquid and represent 1% of all intracranial masses in neonates.1 Although well reported, the precise etiology and pathogenesis of arachnoid cysts are uncertain. Being developmental in origin, arachnoid cysts can be detected on prenatal screening. Although sonography is used routinely for fetal assessment, it is difficul...
