N2 - MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) is an important complement to the ultrasound prenatal screening. It provides an excellent resolution for imaging the maternal and fetal anatomies. For mother, it is useful for pelvimetry, diagnostics of adnexal masses or placental pathology. For fetus MRI specifies and completes the ultrasound examination in case of fetal anomalies such as CNS, chest, abdominal, renal or gastrointestinal anomalies. In pregnancies with severe oligohydramnion MRI helps to clarify the ultrasound scan.There are many cases in which MRI has proved to be valuable as an adjunct to the ultrasound. Based on our first experience, MRI is useful, safe and fast modality for prenatal diagnostics. Our first experience proved MRI to be more accurate in diagnostics of fetal CNS abnormalities and in prediction of placental attachment as well. PACS enables us to store and share images with radiologists. In future, we plan on to read and evaluate MRI images ourselves, compare them with ultrasound scan and clinical findings and consult radiologist if necessary.
