Quantification of human fetal blood flow using phase contrast (PC) MR with metric optimized gating (MOG) has recently been demonstrated in normal pregnancies and fetal left-sided congenital heart disease. These studies were performed at a field strength of 1.5T; however, there is growing interest in fetal imaging at higher field strengths to improve SNR. The goal of this pilot study was to evaluate the agreement between fetal flows measured at 1.5T and 3.0T, using PC MR with MOG.
