Overview
Fetal MRI is a useful diagnostic tool that is commonly used in the second and third trimester. Its ability to measure total lung volume and assess herniated liver mass has particularly proven to be helpful. Lungs appear hyperintense whereas the heart, liver, and mediastinum appear hypointense.
MRI
- Measures total lung volume[1]
- Assessment of herniated liver tissue
- Lungs appear hyperintense
- Heart, liver, and mediastinum appear hypointense[2]
- Lung-head ratio: slightly higher accuracy than for the LHR measured with ultrasonography
