Dear Colleagues,
Ultrasound is an integral component of antenatal care and pregnancy follow-up. This imaging provides information during pregnancy including detection of fetal anomalies, diseases, and useful data to assist in perinatal management. In recent years, different technological improvements including high-resolution ultrasonography, linear transducer, radiant flow, three-/ four-dimensional (3D/4D) ultrasound, speckle tracking of the fetal heart, and artificial intelligence have been available in clinical practice.
This special issue aims to provide an overview of the knowledge in this field by publishing studies on the current state of the art, feasibility, application, and new opportunities and future perspectives of the advances in prenatal ultrasound diagnosis. Original articles, narrative and systematic reviews are welcomed.
We look forward to receiving your contribution.
Dr. Filippo Alberto Ferrari, Dr. Francesca Cisotto and Dr. Simone Garzon
