AB  - OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess the feasibility and usefulness of 
      transabdominal color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI) technology and the 
      high-definition flow imaging (HDFI) technique in detecting fetal pulmonary veins 
      (PVs) in the first trimester (11-13(+6) weeks). METHODS: From December 2018 to 
      October 2019, 328 pregnant women with 328 normal singleton fetuses (crown-rump 
      length: 45-84 mm) who had undergone CDFI and HDFI scans for fetal heart and 
      vessel examination were enrolled in this study. The cases were divided into three 
      groups according to the gestational age: group A, 11(+0) -11(+6) weeks; group B, 
      12(+0) -12(+6) weeks; and group C, 13(+0) -13(+6) weeks. Baseline sonograms and 
      CDFI and HDFI images were analyzed by two senior radiologists independently and 
      blindly. The abilities of CDFI and HDFI to display PVs were compared. RESULTS: 
      Successful PV display rates via CDFI and HDFI were 2.3% and 68.2% (P<0.01), 22.4% 
      and 82.4% (P<0.01), 41.5% and 91.2% (P<0.01) for group A, group B, and group C, 
      respectively. The total successful display rates for the two methods were 28.9% 
      (CDFI) and 84.8% (HDFI) (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS: The HDFI technique is more 
      valuable than CDFI for detecting PVs in early pregnancy (11-13(+6) weeks). HDFI 
      can detect at least one PV in all cases and may be used to detect pulmonary 
      venous anomalies early.
