This study evaluated changes in apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values in the brains of fetuses with isolated mild ventriculomegaly (IMVM). 67 fetuses with IMVM were divided into groups based on ventricle symmetry and compared to 38 normal controls. The asymmetric ventricle with one normal ventricle group showed elevated basal ganglia ADC values ipsilateral to the enlarged ventricle. The symmetric ventriculomegaly group showed elevated basal ganglia and reduced frontal lobe ADC values. The asymmetric ventriculomegaly group showed reduced temporal lobe ADC values. These distinct regional ADC changes suggest different pathological processes and developmental impacts for different IMVM subtypes.
