title: Prenatal evaluation of fetal anomalies.
abstract: Advances in sonographic imaging have allowed for detailed examination of the fetus. A wide range of abnormalities of the fetal central nervous system, chest, gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary system, and skeleton are detectable by prenatal sonography. This article reviews the sonographic findings and prognostic implications of these abnormalities.
