Prenatal and postnatal imaging techniques in the evaluation of disorders of sex development.

Imaging of the reproductive tract is challenging and requires a general knowledge of congenital variations in anatomy. The anatomy of the developing fetus, whether a male phenotype or female phenotype, is also a dynamic process with many changes occurring during gestation. Families may ask details about the genitalia during prenatal imaging and when variations in what is thought to be normal are present, further investigation is sometimes needed to make sense of what is seen. This overview will describe categories of disorders of sex development (DSD), whether chromosomal or structural or both, and the current state of imaging of these anomalies.
