摘要

International guidelines have been published describing standard screeningScreening views of the fetal heartFetal heart ensuring a systematic approach is undertaken by all practitioners involved in the prenatal detection of major congenital heart diseaseCongenital heart disease (CHD). This systematic approach involves a series of transverse cuts in a caudal to cranial direction including the cardiac situs, four-chamber viewFour-chamber view, left ventricular outflow tractLeft ventricular outflow tract, right ventricular outflow tractRight ventricular outflow tract, three vessel viewThree vessel view (3VV) and finally the three vessel and tracheal (3VT) view. This approach aims to increase the prenatal detection of major forms of CHD using a system which can be incorporated into fetalFetal anomaly screeningScreening programs.
