Magnetic resonance imaging of fetal abdominal pathology: a complementary tool to prenatal ultrasound.

Fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly being used worldwide as a complementary tool to prenatal ultrasound (US) for multiple fetal pathologies. The aim of this article is to describe and illustrate how MRI can help US to evaluate fetal abdominal anomalies, based on cases performed in a tertiary public university hospital. Prenatal US, fetal MRI and postnatal imaging of these cases will be shown side-by-side to describe and illustrate the added value of fetal MRI in the different organs/systems and its impact on clinical management.
