Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, NMR in Obstetrics

Abstract

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) is a hazardless, promising and rapidly improving new technique, proposed as a modality to computerized tomographic x-ray scanning in hospitals and medical centers. NMR imaging gives excellent differentiation of both maternal and fetal tissues. NMR can provide the images in multiple planes without the use of ionizing radiation. it is the unique technique to demonstrate of cervical morphology obviously. The bony pelvis is depicted clearly, so NMR is an alternative to conventional x-ray pelvimetry. Fetal brain, lung and liver can be demonstrated well in final trimester. Abdominal full term pregnancy, conjoined twins and the pelvic masses occuring in pregnancy are identified easily with Nuclear Magnetic Resonance.
