Intrauterine diagnosis of hydranencephaly by magnetic resonance.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used to confirm an ultrasound diagnosis of hydranencephaly in utero. MRI provided an accurate anatomical assessment, influencing the pregnancy management. The result supports previous reports suggesting that MRI may be a useful complement to ultrasonography in intrauterine diagnoses.
