Foetal MRI is a complementary imaging method to antenatal ultrasound. It provides advanced information for detection and characterisation of foetal brain and body anomalies. Even though modern single shot sequences allow fast acquisition of 2D slices with high in-plane image quality, foetal MRI is intrinsically corrupted by motion. Foetal motion leads to loss of structural continuity and corrupted 3D volumetric information in stacks of slices. Furthermore, the arbitrary and constantly changing position of the foetus requires dynamic readjustment of acquisition planes during scanning.
