A fetus with suspicion for holoprosencephaly and various brain malformations were seen on ultrasound and send for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Immediately after the birth of the female patient ultrasound and MRI was made which confirmed lobar holoprosencephaly. Fetal MRI stands out as a powerful diagnostic tool for detecting anomalies and other disorders. By developing new sequences and raising image quality will enable visualization of small details.
