Abstract:US equipment became more and more important for the practicing obstetricians, and the demands for practicing US as part of the antenatal care becomes sometimes routine in certain areas. A lot of US workshops are practiced trying to put the guidelines for using the US in this domain, and every now and then new markers and US signs are added that could have some significance in relation to the fetal outcome.Here a problem now exists, which is the gap between the ability to detect and the understanding of the sig… Show more
“…14 The findings of a choroid plexus cyst with other sonographic abnormalities is associated with aneuploidy, particularly trisomy 18. 15 However, a single, isolated cyst does not increase the risk, and it usually disappears before 26 weeks of gestation. 15 On 2D sonography, bilateral choroid plexus cysts can be observed as rounded, sonoluscent structures ( Fig.…”

We present a series of images of different fetal intracranial, intrathoracic and intra-abdominal anomalies reconstructed using HDlive. It is a novel three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound modality that can provide the operator with naturally realistic features of any fetal anomalies. HDlive and its inversion mode are applied in several cases and two-dimensional (2D) sonographic images of different anomalies are also presented clearly to compare the advantages of HDlive in this article. This review focuses on the role of HDlive in the presence of such anomalies. HDlive should be a very useful aid in adjunct to other ultrasound modalities, specifically in cases that warrant detailed information. It can also be useful for the antenatal surveillance of anomalies, such as cystic lesions that may progress to complications. This innovative tool offers many promising advantages in clinical practice and future research on fetal anomalies.
