Three-dimensional ultrasonography (3-D US) was introduced to the field of fetal imaging in the early 1990s. Since then several publications have described potential applications for the diagnosis of congenital malformations as well as organ volumetry. This article reviews basic principles of 3-D US as well as its clinical applicability to prenatal diagnosis of abnormalities involving the face, spine and skeletal system, as well as potential applications of 3-D US for fetal cardiovascular and neuroimaging. Limitations related to motion artifacts, acoustic shadowing and barriers to clinical implementation of 3-D US in clinical practice are addressed.
三维超声检查(3-D US)于20世纪90年代初被引入胎儿成像领域。从那时起,有几篇出版物描述了其在先天性畸形诊断以及器官容积测量方面的潜在应用。本文回顾了三维超声检查的基本原理及其在产前诊断涉及面部、脊柱和骨骼系统异常方面的临床适用性,以及三维超声检查在胎儿心血管和神经成像方面的潜在应用。文中还讨论了与运动伪像、声影以及三维超声检查在临床实践中临床应用障碍相关的局限性。
