AT present necropsy is done in less than 60% of cases of perinatal death in the UK, despite the value of the procedure to the bereaved parents and their doctors. This low rate reflects the difficulty in discussing the examination during the acute distress after the death of a baby, and the personal and religious objections of many parents to necropsy. We compared post-mortem magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the fetus with internal perinatal necropsy to assess whether MRI examination is a feasible option for the 40% of cases where consent for necropsy is not given or requested.
