Abstract Although three-dimensional ultrasound (3DUS) has been available for more than 10 years in Indonesia, there was no publishing article from our region which systematically evaluates our experiences in this most recent ultrasound technologies and its application to obstetric. 3DUS is revolving into a technology with various range of applications in numerous fields because it helps overcome some of the key limitations related to two-dimensional imaging. It is through this review that we attempt to develop a continuous line of understanding the current diagnostic benefits of 3D and 4DUS in diagnosis of fetal abnormalities and consider the utility and role of this type of imaging in the routine clinical practice.

ABSTRACT We present a series of images of different fetal intracranial, intrathoracic and intra-abdominal anomalies reconstructed using HDlive. It is a novel three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound modality that can provide the operator with naturally realistic features of any fetal anomalies. HDlive and its inversion mode are applied in several cases and two-dimensional (2D) sonographic images of different anomalies are also presented clearly to compare the advantages of HDlive in this article. This review focuses on the role of HDlive in the presence of such anomalies. HDlive should be a very useful aid in adjunct to other ultrasound modalities, specifically in cases that warrant detailed information. It can also be useful for the antenatal surveillance of anomalies, such as cystic lesions that may progress to complications. This innovative tool offers many promising advantages in clinical practice and future research on fetal anomalies. How to cite this article Cajusay-Velasco S, Hata T.

The placenta is a transitory organ indispensable for normal fetal maturation and growth. Recognition of abnormal placental variants is important in clinical practice, and a broader understanding of the significance of placental variants would help clinicians better manage affected pregnancies. Increased thickness of the placenta is reported to be a nonspecific finding but it is associated with many maternal and fetal abnormalities, including preeclampsia and abnormal fetal growth. In this review, we address the questions regarding the characteristics of placenta thickness and the relationship between thickened placenta and poor pregnancy outcomes.

Abstract Two-dimensional ultrasound is commonly used for assessing uterine pathology. Three-dimensional ultrasound is a new imaging modality, which is being introduced into clinical practice. The aim of this paper is addressing the current status of three-dimensional ultrasound in the assessment of uterine pathology.

Three-dimensional computerized imaging is a new modality of radiological imaging. This new technique transforms the two-dimensional slices of bi-plane CT into a three-dimensional picture by a computer’s monitor adjusted to the system. This system enables the physician to rotate the angle of viewing of the desired region to any desired angle. Moreover, this system can delete certain features of different densities from the picture, such as silicone implants, thus improving visualization. Our preliminary results using this technique are presented. The advantages, pitfalls, and suggested future applications of this new technique in hand surgery are discussed.

Interlayer diffusion of Co over steps of vacancy islands on the Pt(111) surface as studied by scanning tunneling microscopy is presented. It is demonstrated that Co atoms descend Pt steps by an exchange diffusion process at the step edge with the Pt atoms. Further, the exchange diffusion process is observed to occur at the corners (kinks) of the vacancy islands. The importance of kinks concerning whether the growth mode of a heteropitaxial film is two-dimensional or three-dimensional is demonstrated for the case of thin Co films on Pt(111). We argue that the strain in the Co film is to a large extent responsible for the kink formation.
