Visualization on MRI of non-cardiac anomalies in fetuses with suspected heterotaxy is feasible and can assist the complex diagnosis of this condition, despite its limitations. This modality potentially enables differentiation of less severe cases from more complex ones, which may have a poorer prognosis. Fetal MRI can assist in prenatal counseling and planning postnatal management. © 2021 The Authors.
