[Prenatal sonography and computed tomography of fetal cerebral malformations].
In three pregnant women, sonography and amniocentesis suggested cranial abnormalities of the foetuses. In view of the far-reaching consequences of such a diagnosis, CT was carried out to confirm the diagnosis. It was possible to show the intra-uterine abnormalities and the type of malformation in considerable detail. In one case an encephalocele was demonstrated, in the two others, an anencephalic foetus was shown.
