Zusammenfassung

Objective To report our preliminary experience with MRI in fetal heart evaluation. Method Two radiologists examined 31 MRI of fetuses with no ultrasound (US) evidence of thoracic or cardiac anomalies. Multiplanar T2-weighted HASTE sequences were acquired for whole-fetus anatomic evaluation; multiplanar true-FISP and Cine-MR sequences with real time steady-state free precession (SSFP) oriented like standard fetal echocardiographic projections were acquired for the characterization of cardiovascular morphology and function. Results In every case MRI assessed the viscero-atrial situs. The four-chamber view and the…
