Methods: We retrospectively assessed the visibility of cardiovascular anatomy in 60 fetuses without suspicion of congenital heart defect. Non-gated dynamic balanced SSFP sequences were acquired in three anatomic planes of the fetal thorax. The images were analyzed following a segmental approach in consensus reading by an experienced pediatric cardiologist and radiologist. An imaging score was defined by giving one point to each visualized structure, yielding a maximum score of 21 points. Image quality was rated from 0 (poor) to 2 (excellent). The influence of gestational age (GA), field strength, placenta position, and maternal panniculus on image quality and imaging score were tested. Results: 30 scans were performed at 1.5T, 30 at 3T. Heart position, atria, and ventricles could be seen in all 60 fetuses. Basic diagnosis (&gt;12 points) was achieved in 54 cases. The mean imaging score was 16.8+\/\u22123.8. Maternal panniculus (r = \u22120.3; p = 0.015) and GA (r = 0.6; p &lt; 0.001) correlated with imaging score. Field strength influenced image quality, with 1.5T being better than 3T images (p = 0.012). Imaging score or quality was independent of placenta position. Conclusion: Fetal cardiac MRI with non-gated SSFP sequences enables recognition of basic cardiovascular anatomy. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000528966","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,9]],"date-time":"2023-01-09T22:00:38Z","timestamp":1673301638000},"page":"8-16","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Feasibility of Non-Gated Dynamic Fetal Cardiac MRI for Identification of Fetal Cardiovascular Anatomy"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"50","author":[{"given":"Julia","family":"Geiger","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ruth O\u2019Gorman","family":"Tuura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2862-6633","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fraser M.","family":"Callaghan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0412-9958","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Barbara E.U.","family":"Burkhardt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9122-2431","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Christian J.","family":"Kellenberger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3685-1881","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Emanuela R.","family":"Valsangiacomo Buechel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,7]]},"container-title":["Fetal Diagnosis and Therapy"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/fdt\/article-pdf\/50\/1\/8\/3957584\/000528966.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/fdt\/article-pdf\/50\/1\/8\/3957584\/000528966.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,23]],"date-time":"2025-04-23T15:08:49Z","timestamp":1745420929000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000528966"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2023]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,17]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,20]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000528966","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1015-3837","1421-9964"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"1015-3837"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1421-9964"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2023]]}}}
