dc.description.abstractTo determine the most common indication for foetal MRI, and to correlate ante-natal MRI with ante-natal ultrasound, post-natal imaging and post mortem findings. This was a retrospective study of imaging between January 2006 and December 2011. Seventy foetal MRI cases with complete medical records (antenatal and postnatal) were included in the study. Antenatal ultrasound and antenatal MR imaging was compared and also compared with the postnatal imaging findings. Stata 12 was used to analyse the Data. Spearman’s test was used to test the agreement between the results. Intracranial pathology was the most common indication for foetal MRI, with ventriculomegaly being the commonest indication determined from prenatal ultrasound. There was 72% agreement between antenatal ultrasound and foetal MRI. Post-natal findings showed 28% agreement with antenatal ultrasound and 39% agreement with foetal MRI. Intracranial pathology was the major indication for foetal MRI. The study found good agreement between prenatal ultrasound and foetal MRI but poor agreement between antenatal and postnatal findings.en_ZA
