Can four-dimensional ultrasound detect fetal tricuspid regurgitation?

Four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound can usually detect tricuspid regurgitation in the fetal heart.

Four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound is an important method to check the fetal heart. It is usually performed 24 to 28 weeks after pregnancy. At this time, the fetal heart structure has fully developed. Through four-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound, the size and structure of the fetal heart can be clearly observed, so as to observe the development of the fetal heart's tricuspid valve and determine whether tricuspid regurgitation has occurred.

Usually mild tricuspid regurgitation may be a normal physiological phenomenon and generally does not require special treatment. It will gradually recover as the fetus grows.
