Ultrasonography (USG) is a critical tool in the early detection and diagnosis of fetal congenital
anomalies, significantly improving prenatal care and the management of pregnancies. It is a noninvasive, cost-effective, and readily available imaging modality that allows real-time visualization of fetal anatomy and development. This study conducted at the Srinivas Institute of Medical Sciences evaluated the efficacy of USG in diagnosing fetal abdominal congenital anomalies in 3000 pregnancies. We analyzed the prevalence of various fetal congenital abdominal anomalies, emphasizing the role of 2D, 3D, and Doppler ultrasound techniques in early diagnosis. Our findings highlight USG’s effectiveness in detecting anomalies such as gastrointestinal defects, abdominal wall defects, and urinary tract malformations. The study underlines the importance of accurate prenatal diagnosis for timely intervention and improved neonatal outcomes.
