Zusammenfassung

Purpose To report our preliminary experience with fetal MRI in evaluation of fetal congenital cardiac malformations Materials and methods 15 fetuses with US-diagnosed congenital cardiac malformations performed 15 obstetric MRI examinations. Multiplanar T2w HASTE, trueFISP and CineMR sequences of the fetal heart oriented like standard echocardiographic projections were acquired. Results In all cases MRI imaged the pathologic fetal heart. Fetal MRI confirmed an increased heart size in all the cardiomegalies (9); an abnormal ventricular septum angulations to the midline in all apex malpositions (4) and assessed the…
