OBJECTIVE: To explore the value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in fetuses with periventricular pseudocysts (PVPC) and the neurodevelopmental outcomes of these fetuses via meta-analysis. METHODS: MEDLINE and EMBASE database were searched for studies reporting on the MRI assessment of fetuses diagnosed with PVPC on neurosonography. The neurosonography was conducted according to the International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology (ISUOG) guidelines or standard axial, coronal and sagittal planes for advanced central nervous system (CNS) assessment...

BACKGROUND: In obstetric and gynecological practice, ultrasound is the essential diagnostic tool. Nevertheless, few clinics have standardized and structured training curricula for young obstetricians in the field of obstetric and gynecological ultrasound. Since ultrasound is best learned hands-on in small supervised groups, we developed and implemented a comprehensive ultrasound curriculum for all postgraduate residents of our department using a peer-teaching concept. METHODS: We used Kern's six-step model of curricular development comprising (1) problem identification and general needs assessment, (2) needs assessment of the targeted learners, (3) goals and objectives, (4) educational strategies, (5) implementation, and (6) evaluation and feedback...

Introduction: Establishing an accurate gestational age is essential for the optimum management of pregnancy, delivery and neonatal care, with improved estimates of gestational age considered a public health priority by the World Health Organization (WHO). Although ultrasound is considered the most precise method to achieve this, it is unavailable to many women in low- and middle- income countries (LMICs), where the lack of trained practitioners is considered a major barrier. This systematic review explores what initiatives have previously been undertaken to train staff to date pregnancies using ultrasound, which were successful and what barriers and facilitators influenced training...

This study reviewed the literature about the diagnosis, antepartum surveillance, and time of delivery of fetuses suspected to be small for gestational age or growth restricted. Several guidelines have been issued by major professional organizations, including the International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine. The differences in recommendations, in particular about Doppler velocimetry of the ductus venosus and middle cerebral artery, have created confusion among clinicians, and this review has intended to clarify and highlight the available evidence that is pertinent to clinical management...

BACKGROUND: Intrauterine growth restriction is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular changes neonatally. However, the underlying pathways are poorly understood, and it is not clear whether the dysfunction is already present in the fetus. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate fetal cardiac dimensions assessed from images at the second trimester anatomy scan from fetuses classified postnatally as small for gestational age and intrauterine growth restricted and compare them with appropriate for gestational age fetuses...

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to report the rate of additional anomalies detected exclusively at prenatal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in fetuses with isolated severe ventriculomegaly undergoing neurosonography. METHOD: Multicenter, retrospective, cohort study involving 20 referral fetal medicine centers in Italy, United Kingdom, Spain and Denmark. Inclusion criteria were fetuses affected by isolated severe ventriculomegaly (≥15 mm), defined as ventriculomegaly with normal karyotype and no other additional central nervous system (CNS) and extra-CNS anomalies on ultrasound...

OBJECTIVE: To compare the feasibility of performing a complete first trimester fetal anatomy screening between two operators with different levels of experience using the protocol of the International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology (ISUOG), and to compare the duration of scan and learning curve of each operator as secondary outcomes. METHODS: A prospective study was conducted on singleton pregnancies at 11+0 -13+6 weeks of gestation. Transabdominal ultrasound anatomy screening was performed by a maternal fetal medicine (MFM) staff (operator 1) or a first year MFM fellow (operator 2) following ISUOG guidelines...

3D Fractional Limb Volume Identifies Reduced Subcutaneous and Lean Mass in Fetal Growth Restriction.

OBJECTIVES: Fetal 2D and 3D fractional limb volume (FLV) measurements by ultrasound can detect fetal lean and subcutaneous mass and possibly percent body fat. Our objectives were to 1) compare FLV measurements in fetuses with fetal growth restriction (FGR) versus small for gestational age (SGA) defined by the International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology (ISUOG)-supported international Delphi consensus and 2) correlate FLV findings with birth metrics. We hypothesize that FLV measurements will be significantly smaller in FGR versus SGA fetuses and will correlate closer with Ponderal index (PIx) in the neonate than abdominal circumference (AC)...

Fetal head descent can be expressed as fetal station and engagement. Station is traditionally based on clinical vaginal examination of the distal part of the fetal skull and related to the level of the ischial spines. Engagement is based on a transabdominal examination of the proximal part of the fetal head above the pelvic inlet. Clinical examinations are subjective, and objective measurements of descent are warranted. Ultrasound is a feasible diagnostic tool in labor, and fetal lie, station, position, presentation, and attitude can be examined...

BACKGROUND: This report evaluates results of a screening program on prenatal detection of congenital heart defects in a geographical cohort of western Sweden between January 1st, 2013 and June 31st, 2017. During the study period 88,230 children were born in VGR. METHODS: Retrospective data on pregnant women from the Västra Götaland region that were referred to fetal cardiologists in Gothenburg were retrieved. To determine prenatal detection rate, all neonates who underwent surgery or catheter intervention for a critical congenital heart defect born between January 1st, 2014 and December 31st, 2016 were included...

Inaccurate assessment of the fetal head position and station might increase the risk for difficult or failed assisted vaginal delivery. Compared with digital vaginal examination, an ultrasound examination is objective and more accurate. The International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology has issued practical guidelines on intrapartum ultrasound in 2018 and recommended that an ultrasound assessment should be conducted when there is suspected delay or arrest of the first or second stage of labor or before considering assisted vaginal delivery...
