摘要

Postmortem magnetic resonance imaging (PMMRI) after fetal or perinatal death is now being adopted more widely in clinical settings as a non-invasive alternative or complementary approach to conventional autopsy. However, indications and imaging protocols vary significantly between centers and require standardization. Emerging advanced imaging techniques such as ultra-high-field MRI are very promising in smaller fetuses. In this article, we outline the current indications for PMMRI across different clinical scenarios and review consensus PMMRI protocols, together with a preview of future imaging possibilities enabled by 7-T MRI technology. We hope these recommendations will facilitate the standardization and implementation of perinatal PMMRI in clinical practice.
