MRI of the Fetal Brain: Normal Development and Cerebral Pathologies

By Catherine Garel

Book Overview

In recent years, Fetal MR has grown continually in importance, and the brain has become the main focus of investigation. However, we lack established standards and a good knowledge of the normal MR appearance. The first part of this book fills this gap, presenting an MR atlas of the cerebral development of the fetus. The second part is dedicated to cerebral pathologies. For each condition, it includes a summary of the fundamental data, the imaging findings in correlation with neurofetopathology and/or postnatal imaging, and a perspective of the prognosis.
