To prospectively compare diagnostic accuracy of fetal post-mortem whole-body MRI at 3-T vs. 1.5-T.
Methods
Between 2012 and 2015, post-mortem MRI at 1.5-T and 3-T was performed in fetuses after miscarriage/stillbirth or termination. Clinical MRI diagnoses were assessed using a confidence diagnostic score and compared with classical autopsy to derive a diagnostic error score. The relation of diagnostic error for each organ group with gestational age was calculated and 1.5-T with 3-T was compared with accuracy analysis.
Results
135 fetuses at 12–41 weeks underwent post-mortem MRI (followed by conventional autopsy in 92 fetuses). For all organ groups except the brain, and for both modalities, the diagnostic error decreased with gestation (

To prospectively compare diagnostic accuracy of fetal post-mortem whole-body MRI at 3-T vs. 1.5-T.
Methods
Between 2012 and 2015, post-mortem MRI at 1.5-T and 3-T was performed in fetuses after miscarriage/stillbirth or termination. Clinical MRI diagnoses were assessed using a confidence diagnostic score and compared with classical autopsy to derive a diagnostic error score. The relation of diagnostic error for each organ group with gestational age was calculated and 1.5-T with 3-T was compared with accuracy analysis.
Results
135 fetuses at 12–41 weeks underwent post-mortem MRI (followed by conventional autopsy in 92 fetuses). For all organ groups except the brain, and for both modalities, the diagnostic error decreased with gestation (
P
< 0.0001). 3-T MRI diagnostic error was significantly lower than that of 1.5-T for all anatomic structures and organ groups, except the orbits and brain. This difference was maintained for fetuses <20 weeks gestation. Moreover, 3-T was associated with fewer non-diagnostic scans and greater concordance with classical autopsy than 1.5-T MRI, especially for the thorax, heart and abdomen in fetuses <20 weeks.
Conclusion
Post-mortem fetal 3-T MRI improves confidence scores and overall accuracy compared with 1.5-T, mainly for the thorax, heart and abdomen of fetuses <20 weeks of gestation.
Key Points
•
In PM-MRI, diagnostic error using 3-T is lower than that with 1.5-T.
•
In PM-MRI, diagnostic scan rate is higher using 3-T than 1.5-T.
•
In PM-MRI, concordance with classical autopsy increases with 3-T.
•
PM-MRI using 3-T is particularly interesting for thoracic and abdominal organs.
•
PM-MRI using 3-T is particularly interesting for fetuses < 20 weeks’ gestation.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0938-7994</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1432-1084</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1007/s00330-016-4725-4</identifier><identifier>PMID: 28116518</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Berlin/Heidelberg: Springer Berlin Heidelberg</publisher><subject>Abdomen ; Abortion, Induced ; Abortion, Spontaneous - diagnostic imaging ; Abortion, Spontaneous - pathology ; Accuracy ; Autopsies ; Autopsy ; Autopsy - methods ; Brain ; Brain - diagnostic imaging ; Brain - pathology ; Condoms ; Diagnostic Errors ; Diagnostic Radiology ; Diagnostic systems ; Errors ; Female ; Fetal Diseases - diagnostic imaging ; Fetal Diseases - pathology ; Fetus - diagnostic imaging ; Fetus - pathology ; Fetuses ; Gestation ; Gestational Age ; Heart - diagnostic imaging ; Humans ; Imaging ; Internal Medicine ; Interventional Radiology ; Magnetic Resonance ; Magnetic resonance imaging ; Magnetic Resonance Imaging - methods ; Medicine ; Medicine & Public Health ; Miscarriage ; Myocardium - pathology ; Neuroimaging ; Neuroradiology ; NMR ; Nuclear magnetic resonance ; Organs ; Pregnancy ; Prospective Studies ; Radiology ; Stillbirth ; Thorax ; Thorax - diagnostic imaging ; Thorax - pathology ; Ultrasound ; Whole Body Imaging - methods</subject><ispartof>European radiology, 2017-08, Vol.27 (8), p.3542-3553</ispartof><rights>European Society of Radiology 2017</rights><rights>European Radiology is a copyright of Springer, 2017.</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><oa>free_for_read</oa><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-c415t-b5106d025455002862808dfd6855c6be0aec650ef7356b20bad8c160c06b2ccb3</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c415t-b5106d025455002862808dfd6855c6be0aec650ef7356b20bad8c160c06b2ccb3</cites></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><linktopdf>$$Uhttps://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00330-016-4725-4$$EPDF$$P50$$Gspringer$$H</linktopdf><linktohtml>$$Uhttps://link.springer.com/10.1007/s00330-016-4725-4$$EHTML$$P50$$Gspringer$$H</linktohtml><link.rule.ids>314,776,780,27901,27902,41464,42533,51294</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28116518$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Kang, Xin</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Cannie, Mieke M.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Arthurs, Owen J.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Segers, Valerie</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Fourneau, Catherine</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Bevilacqua, Elisa</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Cos Sanchez, Teresa</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Sebire, Neil J.</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Jani, Jacques C.</creatorcontrib><title>Post-mortem whole-body magnetic resonance imaging of human fetuses: a comparison of 3-T vs. 1.5-T MR imaging with classical autopsy</title><title>European radiology</title><addtitle>Eur Radiol</addtitle><addtitle>Eur Radiol</addtitle><description>Objective

To prospectively compare diagnostic accuracy of fetal post-mortem whole-body MRI at 3-T vs. 1.5-T.
Methods
Between 2012 and 2015, post-mortem MRI at 1.5-T and 3-T was performed in fetuses after miscarriage/stillbirth or termination. Clinical MRI diagnoses were assessed using a confidence diagnostic score and compared with classical autopsy to derive a diagnostic error score. The relation of diagnostic error for each organ group with gestational age was calculated and 1.5-T with 3-T was compared with accuracy analysis.
Results
135 fetuses at 12–41 weeks underwent post-mortem MRI (followed by conventional autopsy in 92 fetuses). For all organ groups except the brain, and for both modalities, the diagnostic error decreased with gestation (
P
< 0.0001). 3-T MRI diagnostic error was significantly lower than that of 1.5-T for all anatomic structures and organ groups, except the orbits and brain. This difference was maintained for fetuses <20 weeks gestation. Moreover, 3-T was associated with fewer non-diagnostic scans and greater concordance with classical autopsy than 1.5-T MRI, especially for the thorax, heart and abdomen in fetuses <20 weeks.
Conclusion
Post-mortem fetal 3-T MRI improves confidence scores and overall accuracy compared with 1.5-T, mainly for the thorax, heart and abdomen of fetuses <20 weeks of gestation.
Key Points
•
In PM-MRI, diagnostic error using 3-T is lower than that with 1.5-T.
•
In PM-MRI, diagnostic scan rate is higher using 3-T than 1.5-T.
•
In PM-MRI, concordance with classical autopsy increases with 3-T.
•
PM-MRI using 3-T is particularly interesting for thoracic and abdominal organs.
•
PM-MRI using 3-T is particularly interesting for fetuses < 20 weeks’ gestation.</abstract><cop>Berlin/Heidelberg</cop><pub>Springer Berlin Heidelberg</pub><pmid>28116518</pmid><doi>10.1007/s00330-016-4725-4</doi><tpages>12</tpages><oa>free_for_read</oa></addata></record> |
