Fetal death. (a) Lack of detectable cardiac motion on Doppler ultrasonography (normal shown here) can be the earliest method of confirming fetal demise. (b) There is a loss of recognizable fetal anatomy and reduction in the amount of fluid within the vesicle. Note the adjacent (near-field) enlarged, fluid-filled uterine horn. (Courtesy of T.
