The goal of this virtual, interactive CME lecture series is to update care providers on the latest advances in fetal diagnostic criteria and optimal management to enhance their skills in prenatal diagnosis, counseling and treatment. Hosted by the Richard D. Wood Jr. Center for Fetal Diagnosis and Treatment, this series provides a forum to delineate fetal diagnoses, nuances in fetal findings, therapies available, and the impact they can have on pregnancy management and maternal/fetal outcomes.
