Although ultrasound is the primary imaging modality for prenatal anatomic evaluation, some central nervous system malformations may be better defined with high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MRI allows us to visualize the features of brain development that were previously only seen histologically by embryologists and anatomists. Although there are several reports of the postnatal development of the cerebellum as revealed on magnetic resonance (MR) images, systematic MR studies of cerebellar development during the fetal period are lacking. Our objective was to use high-resolution MRI to provide a template of cerebellar development during the late first and early second trimesters, a period when the diagnosis of congenital malformations is most medicoethically relevant. The MR findings were then correlated with histological data.
