Abstract

The ultrasound is undoubtedly the first-line diagnostic examination to identify prenatal congenital abnormalities. Fetal-MRI (FMRI) is a non-invasive, fast, highly informative examination that can shed immense information on anatomical abnormalities and affect decision-making. If, in spite of a significant pathology, the parents insist on continuing with the pregnancy, help of other interdisciplinary specialities can be sought for postnatal care. The article briefly describes different aspects of FMRI.
