Abstract
The diagnosis of brain death by Doppler ultrasonography and magnetic resona nce imaging is reported in a fetus at 23 weeks' gestation. This is believed to be the first instance in which brain death has been shown in a prematur e fetus with a brain-stem anomaly. Copyright (C) 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Lt d.
