“…Moreover, it has been demonstrated that HDlive with spatiotemporal image correlation (STIC) that allows a new realistic image modality of endocardial cushion that may result in diagnostic enhancement in pathologic cases (11). AboEllail et al (40) have reported the diagnostic value of HDlive in a case of atrioventricular septal defect, bilateral ventricular hypertrophy, and pericardial effusion.…”

“…Hence, the application of 3D/4D ultrasound has been proven to have contributed to an increased diagnostic accuracy when applied to the study of the central nervous system (neuroscan), cardiac anatomy, and orofacial malformations (10,11). The introduction of the HDlive rendering offers a natural and realistic view of the fetus through the use of a new skin-like color (12) that makes the ultrasound images more discernible to both parents and clinicians than those obtained by conventional two-dimensional (2D) or 3D ultrasound.…”

“…In the 1 st trimester, normal and abnormal embryonal and fetal developments can be followed and evaluated in the smallest detail. Early and midtrimester anomaly scans can be aided with 3D/4D HDlive technology in detecting fetal anomalies and syndromes, as suggested by many studies [10,18,[24][25][26]. Only 2 years ago, new applications in 3D US called HDlive silhouette and HDlive flow were launched.…”

With all of our present knowledge, high technology diagnostic equipment, electronic databases and other available supporting resources, detection of fetal syndromes is still a challenge for healthcare providers in prenatal as well as in the postnatal period. Prenatal diagnosis of fetal syndromes is not straightforward, and it is a difficult puzzle that needs to be assembled and solved. Detection of one anomaly should always raise a suspicion of the existence of more anomalies, and can be a trigger to investigate further and raise awareness of possible syndromes. Highly specialized software systems for three-and four-dimensional ultrasound (3D/4D US) enabled detailed depiction of fetal anatomy and assessment of the dynamics of fetal structural and functional development in real time. With recent advances in 3D/4D US technology, antenatal diagnosis of fetal anomalies and syndromes shifted from the 2 nd to the 1 st trimester of pregnancy. It is questionable what can and should be done after the prenatal diagnosis of fetal syndrome. The 3D and 4D US techniques improved detection accuracy of fetal abnormalities and syndromes from early pregnancy onwards. It is not easy to make prenatal diagnosis of fetal syndromes, so tools which help like online integrated databases are needed to increase diagnostic precision. The aim of this paper is to present the possibilities of different US techniques in the detection of some fetal syndromes prenatally.

“…Better visualization of fetal cardiac structures with a realistic appearance was also described in previous studies on normal hearts as well as various congenital heart anomalies employing HDlive. 4,8 'HDlive may be an important modality in future fetal cardiac research and in the evaluation of fetal congenital heart disease'. 8 This, to the best of our knowledge, is the first report on antenatal HDlive features of fetal ECD.…”

We present our first experience of constructing an image of a fetal endocardial cushion defect (ECD) employing HDlive at 21 weeks and 3 days of gestation. Conventional two-dimensional (2D) echocardiography showed an atrioventricular septal defect, bilateral ventricular hypertrophy and massive peri cardial effusion. Two-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound revealed atrioventricular valve regurgitation in systole. HDlive clearly demonstrated a glossy atrial septal defect, common atrioventricular valve and bilateral ventricular hypertrophy. Moreover, free, floating leaflets of the common atrioventricular valve not attached to the interventricular septum were suspected using HDlive. These findings suggested complete ECD with congestive heart failure. HDlive provided us with a new, realistic, and arguably much improved view of the complexities and interrelationships of intracardiac structures in a case of fetal ECD. HDlive may assist in the evaluation of fetal EDC, and offer potential advantages relative to conventional 2D fetal echocardiography.
