Overview
No known safety hazards are observed with MRI, especially after first trimester.[1] However, the experience with this technique is limited and is indicated only when other imaging modalities such chest x-ray and echocardiography are inconclusive or to identify aortic diseases in pregnancy.[2] Currently, the FDA recommends prudent use of MRI during pregnancy.
