Fetal Cardiac Screening - How to Improve CHD Detection - Mark Sklansky, MD - UCLAMDChat

Learn about fetal cardiac screening and techniques to improve detection of congenital heart disease (CHD) in this informative talk by UCLA pediatric cardiologist Dr. Mark Sklansky. Explore guidelines for fetal echocardiography, the importance of color flow Doppler in detecting ventricular septal defects and pulmonary veins, and the significance of outflow tracts and the three-vessel view. Discover strategies for optimizing image quality, including proper angle of acquisition for the four-chamber view and left ventricular outflow tract, as well as maternal-fetal positioning. Gain insights into essential screening views, such as abdominal situs, four-chamber view, and left ventricular outflow tract view, to enhance prenatal CHD diagnosis skills.
