First Intrapartum Sonographic Diagnosis of Fetal Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy
This is the first intrapartum sonographic demonstration of imaging findings consistent with cerebral edema in a fetus at risk for in utero hypoxia, hence suspected for fetal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. Intrapartum ultrasound can assist clinicians in the differential diagnosis of intrapartum fetal hypoxia as long as it does not delay any interventions required to prevent hypoxic injury.
