摘要
Skeletal anomalies are rare, requiring a systematic ultrasound (US) examination of each skeletal part when there is suspicion of a skeletal dysplasia. Although US examination can provide good evaluation of the fetal bones and cartilage, ultra-low-dose three-dimensional (3-D) multi-detector computed tomography (CT) is a useful complementary tool that can significantly improve prenatal diagnostic accuracy in select cases. Given that ultra-low-dose fetal CT remains an irradiating technique, indications should result from a multidisciplinary consensus, acquisition protocols should be optimized and the reporting standardized. In this paper we discuss guidelines from the Fetal Imaging Task Force of the European Society of Paediatric Radiology for indications, protocols and reporting of ultra-low-dose fetal CT.
