Prenatal diagnosis of truncus arteriosus using multiplanar display in 4D ultrasonography

摘要: AbstractPrenatal diagnosis of truncus arteriosus with two-dimensional sonography requires expertise in fetal echocardiography. Indeed, shares tetralogy Fallot and pulmonary atresia a ventricular septal defect (VSD) the sonographic finding single arterial trunk overriding VSD. The can be confirmed when either main artery or its branches are visualized arising from itself. This sequential examination multiple scanning planes process mental reconstruction their spatial relationships. advantage multiplanar imaging three-dimensional four-dimensional ultrasonography is that it allows for simultaneous visualization three orthogonal anatomic planes, which very important diagnosing cardiac abnormalities. We report, first, case diagnosed utero where display modality provided insight into differential diagnosis...
