Abstract
This article describes the fast MRI of fetal abnormalities and placental an omalies in evaluation of the usefulness of fast MRI in obstetric diagnoses. Fast MRI provides excellent resolution for imaging fetal and maternal anat omies without the need for sedation. Fast MRI is therefore useful to clarif y diagnoses suggested by equivocal ultrasonographic findings and to obtain additional information for prenatal counseling and management.
