Selection and identification of standard cardiac views from three‐dimensional volume scans of the fetal thorax.

The feasibility of fetal echocardiographic examination using three‐dimensional ultrasonography was investigated in 54 healthy pregnant women with uncomplicated pregnancies between 17 and 37 weeks of gestation. In 46 cases (85.2%), good quality three‐dimensional volumes of the fetal heart were obtained from both apical and lateral four‐chamber views. By reslicing apical volumes, the reformatted sections of the long axis view of the left ventricle and the aortic crest were seen in 40 (87%) and 38 (83%) of 46 cases, respectively. The short axis was seen in 26 (57%) and ductal arch in 30 (65%) cases. The examination of lateral volumes was much less successful. The short axis was seen in 11 (24%) cases, and the aortic crest in 22 (48%), whereas the analysis of the longitudinal views was not possible. The best results were obtained at a gestational age between 22 and 27 weeks. Three‐dimensional fetal echocardiography allowed the examination of the four chambers of the heart and left outflow tract during the late second trimester. The technique may become useful for the screening and diagnosis of congenital cardiac defects in the future.
