Five postmortem fetuses were scanned by magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. Of eight three-dimensional (3D) data sets reconstructed on an MGI workstation, five sets demonstrated detailed 3D fetal cardiac structures, and one depicted clear information regarding the disposition and compression of the heart and lungs in diaphragmatic hernia. This study has shown the potential of 3D MR imaging in support of postmortem examination and for interactive visual teaching of the fetal cardiac structures. The new technique may eventually be of significance in prenatal detection of cardiac abnormalities with the development of fast real-time MR imaging.
对五具死产胎儿进行了磁共振(MR)成像扫描。在MGI工作站上重建的八个三维(3D)数据集中,五个数据集展示了详细的胎儿心脏结构,一个描绘了有关膈疝中心脏和肺部的位置及受压情况的清晰信息。本研究显示了3D MR成像在辅助尸检及胎儿心脏结构交互式视觉教学方面的潜力。随着快速实时MR成像技术的发展,这项新技术最终可能在产前心脏异常检测中具有重要意义。
