Abstract
ABSTRACT
Objective
The aim of this
study is to investigate the fetal MRI indications preferred by clinicians in
our tertiary care center and to reveal the additional diagnostic contribution
of MRI to ultrasound findings.
Material and Method
Between
2016-2018, 322 cases who underwent fetal MRI were evaluated retrospectively.
Fetal lesions were classified according to organ systems and indications of
clinicians were determined. Prenatal fetal ultrasound and MRI results were
evaluated.
Results
Distribution of
indications of 322 fetuses with fetal MRI; Central nervous system anomalies in
138 (42.8%), placental anomalies in 99 (30.7%), genitourinary system anomalies
in 36 (11.2%), respiratory system anomalies in 18 (5.6%), 17 (5.3%) maternal
factor, 13 (4.0%) head, neck, face anomalies and 1 (0.4%) fetal factor.
When all
indications were examined, 13 (4.03%) patients had additional findings with
MRI. Central nervous system anomalies were the most common additional finding
with 7 cases, fetal MRI contributed 5.07% in this group. There were 3
additional findings (8.33% additional contribution) in the group with
genitourinary system abnormalities, 2 additional findings (11.7% additional
contribution) in the maternal indications group and 1 additional finding (5.55%
additional contribution) in the group with respiratory system anomalies,
respectively.
Conclusion
Fetal MRI is increasingly
used for proper perinatal management and counseling in cases where
ultrasonography is inadequate. The availability of MRI devices, the increase in
expertise in this field and the advancements in MRI technology will result in
the more widespread use of this modality in the field of Perinatology.

Abstract
ÖZET
Amaç
Üçüncü basamak
merkezimizde klinisyenler tarafından tercih edilen fetal MRG endikasyonlarının
incelenmesi ve MRG’nin ultrason
bulgularına olan ek tanısal katkısının ortaya konmasıdır.
Gereç ve Yöntem
2016-2018 yılları
arasında fetal MRG yapılan 322 olgu retrospektif olarak incelendi. Fetal
lezyonlar organ sistemlerine göre sınıflandırıldı ve klinisyenlerin
endikasyonları belirlendi. Prenatal dönemde yapılan fetal ultrason ve MRG
sonuçları değerlendirildi.
Bulgular
MRG çekilen 322
fetüsün endikasyonlarının dağılımı; 138’inde (%42.8) santral sinir sistemi
anomalileri, 99’unda (%30.7) plasental anomaliler, 36’sında (%11.2) genitoüriner
sistem anomalileri, 18’inde (%5.6) solunum sistemi anomalileri, 17’sinde (%5.3)
maternal faktör, 13’ünde (%4) baş, boyun, yüz anomalileri ve 1’inde (%0.4)
fetal faktör olarak belirlendi.
Tüm endikasyonlar
incelendiğinde MRG ile ek bulgu saptanan olgu sayısı 13’tür (%4.03). Santral
sinir sistemi anomalileri 7 olgu ile en sık ek bulgu saptanan gruptur, bu grup
içerisinde fetal MRG %5.07 oranında ek katkı sunmuştur. Sırasıyla genitoüriner
sistem anomalileri olan grupta 3 ek bulgu (%8.33 oranında ek katkı), maternal
endikasyonlar grubunda 2 ek bulgu (%11.7 oranında ek katkı) ve solunum sistemi
anomalileri olan grupta 1 ek bulgu (%5.55 oranında ek katkı) olduğu görüldü.
Sonuç
Ultrasonografinin
yetersiz kaldığı hallerde uygun perinatal yönetim ve danışmanlık için fetal MRG
giderek artan sıklıkta kullanılmaktadır. MR cihazlarının daha ulaşılabilir
olması, bu alandaki uzmanlığın artması ve MRG teknolojisindeki ileri gelişmeler,
bu modalitenin perinatoloji alanında daha yaygın kullanımı ile sonuçlanacaktır.
