Pediheart Podcast # 51: CINE Magnetic Resonance Imaging to Visualize Fetal Congenital Heart Disease




Pediheart: Pediatric Cardiology Today show

Summary: This week we delve into the world of fetal cardiology to review a recent work comparing fetal MRI to fetal echo. How did this relatively new technology application fair in comparison to more traditional echocardiography? What role might this technology have in the assessment of congenital heart disease in the fetus? We explore these questions and others with fetal cardiology expert, Professor Lisa Hornberger of the University of Alberta - Stollery Children's Hospital. Dr. Hornberger also discusses how she personally uses CMR in her own fetal practice. doi: 10.1161/CIRCIMAGING.118.007745
