Radiological imaging of teratological fetuses: what can we learn?

ConclusionsFull-term teratological fetuses have become increasingly rare and deserve a prominent place in every anatomical museum; they are suitable for contemporary teratological research and education. Modern radiological techniques markedly enhance their scientific and didactic value.Teaching Points•To explore the scientific and educational potential of institutionalised teratological collections•To understand the additional value of radiological imaging in diagnosing teratological specimens•To learn about the specific settings of MRI parameters when scanning fixed specimens•To recognise specific internal dysmorphology in several congenital anomalies
