Overview

Fetal MRI is a useful diagnostic tool that is commonly used in the second and third trimester. It's ability to measure total lung volume and assess herniated liver mass has particularly proven to be helpful.

MRI

  • Measures total lung volume [1]
  • Assessment of herniated liver tissue
  • Lungs appear hyper-intense
  • Heart, liver and mediastinum appear hypo-intense [2]
  • Lung-head ratio: slightly higher accuracy than for the LHR measured with ultrasonography
