Book Chapter Description

Examination of fetal hydrocephalus necessitates initial detection by ultrasound imaging. With the advent of ultrafast magnetic resonance sequences, many clinicians favor further analysis by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Recent advances in ultrasound technology have produced image qualities similar to those of MRI. In this chapter, we describe various imaging modalities that have made it possible to definitively diagnose and classify fetal hydrocephalus, with a few novel modalities that are sure to be used more in the future.
