Discovering fetal brain from diagnosis to counselling
- June 17-18, 2022
- Milano
- The District - Smart Arena
ENSO
The European Neurosonography Working Group
Advanced Fetal Neurology
The ENSO Working Group was formed in 2019 to compare different experiences from several referral centers in Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom and to collect data regarding the role of neurosonography and magnetic resonance imaging in the assessment of fetal brain.
The first collaboration from the ENSO Working Group, focusing on mild and moderate ventriculomegaly, was published on Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology in 2020.
ENSO mission is to improve the counselling and the management of fetuses with brain anomalies through the dissemination of the highest research evidence on fetal brain prenatal imagining..
