Overview
Other Imaging Findings
Postnatal gray-scale and color Doppler echocardiographic and sonographic examinations allowed noninvasive diagnosis, assessment of severity, and monitoring of progression.[1] Contrast-enhanced MR angiography with breath-hold and cardiac gating techniques can allow evaluation of the extent of the disease.[2] Ultrasound can show subtle intravascular calcifications, particularly in the abdominal aorta at week 23.[3] Calcification has been detected at 33 weeks' gestation.[4]
