Seven fetuses images of whole body 3D-true fisp were assessed for fetal organ development. Whole-body 3D-true-FISP images were segmented with semiautomated method. The volume of the brain, lung, heart, liver and kidneys were calculated. As a result, positive correlations between the fetal organ volumes and the gestational week were found. Whole-body 3D-FISP imaging may reflect the volumetric development of the fetal organs along with the gestational age.
