Résumé : |
The loss of a pregnancy or a newborn child is very traumatic. Understanding the causes of death is important not only for helping the parents to grieve, but also, this information can be useful to evaluate a risk for future pregnancies. Postmortem magnetic resonance imaging (PMMRI) is a good diagnostic alternative, especially when consent is declined for conventional autopsy.
This study aimed to optimize the technic of virtopsy to obtain a protocol with adapted sequences, to allow realization of this examination in the daily clinical practice. We examined 23 stillborn, miscarried, or aborted fetuses by 1.5 Tesla MRI. As the result of the study, "Virtopsy" protocol has been established which contains the following optimized sequences: for the cerebral region T2-weigthed fast spin-echo and T2-weigthes gradient echo, and for full body - T1-weigthed fast spin echo and 3D T2-weigthed CISS (Constructive Interference in Steady State) sequences. Each PMMRI examination is easily performed within 30 to 40 minutes, which is an acceptable time for its use in daily clinical practice. |
