Abstract

Congenital cardiac defects are not common, but their serious consequences make early detection and treatment essential. In developing a set of workable criteria for selective screening of serious abnormalities, the authors used commercially available ultrasound equipment in more than 500 high-risk pregnancies. Possible future applications include elucidation of causes of fetal cardiac defects.
