Neuroimaging Findings and Risk Factors for Brain Injury in Foetuses Treated for Anaemia

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to characterize neuroimaging findings and identify risk factors for brain injury in foetuses treated for anaemia through intrauterine transfusion. In their study of 93 eligible foetuses, they found that 52% exhibited brain injuries, with male sex being a significant independent risk factor. The results highlight the need for further research to establish standardized imaging protocols and identify at-risk subgroups for better surveillance.
