so what can we take away from this approach?
- By identifying these 3 structures (in two images) and using the rules that we have laid out, you can effectively identify >95% of all fetal CNS anomalies!
- Of note, the only "misses" will likely be closed/skin covered spinal dysraphisms.
- This detection rate is comparable to that of specialized prenatal diagnosticians in the California Serum MS-AFP program who were specifically tasked with finding anomalies in screen positive patients!
