Use of super resolution reconstruction MRI for surgical planning in Placenta accreta spectrum disorder: Case series.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Comprehensive imaging using ultrasound and MRI of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) aims to prevent catastrophic haemorrhage and maternal death. Standard MRI of the placenta is limited by between-slice motion which can be mitigated by super-resolution reconstruction (SRR) MRI. We applied SRR in suspected PAS cases to determine its ability to enhance anatomical placental assessment and predict adverse maternal outcome.

Methods

Suspected PAS patients (n = 22) underwent MRI at a gestational age (weeks + days) of (32⁺³±3⁺², range (27⁺¹-38⁺⁶)). SRR of the placental-myometrial-bladder interface involving rigid motion correction of acquired MRI slices combined with robust outlier detection to reconstruct an isotropic high-resol
