I have dedicated by career to the field of prenatal diagnosis, with a strong focus on ultrasonography and, since 2011, fetal MRI. My main research interests are prenatal diagnosis of congenital anomalies by ultrasonography and fetal MRI and, more recently, fetal cardiac MRI. I find personally rewarding in my current practice as a Pediatric Radiologist, to have the opportunity of following up closely the fetuses that were imaged prenatally at our institution. I am the author/co-author of over 130 peer-reviewed articles and over 40 book chapters and the co-Editor of Sonography in Obstetrics & Gynecology, Eighth Edition. My personal interests include spending time with family, hicking, biking, sailing, and travelling.
