Intraventricular hemorrhage delineated using 5D CNS+™ in utero at 35 gestational weeks and correlated to the corresponding MR appearance on the 1st day after cesarean section. Note the severe hydrocephalus and the echogenic outlining of the ventricles. The blood clots predominantly seen in the axial and anterior coronal planes during prenatal imaging were markedly degraded in size or could not be reproduced postnatally. However, severe asymmetric enlargement of the ventricular system remained, and the cerebral cortex was thinned, corroborating the prenatal findings. MR images that correspond exactly for both the transcerebellar and parasagittal planes from 5D CNS+™ reconstruction could not be assigned due to the predetermined oblique cutting section.
