Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Adding outflow tract examination to second-trimester ultrasound is a cost-effective strategy to improve the population-level detection of congenital heart disease.
The addition of examination of the outflow tracts to second-trimester ultrasound increases detection of CHD in the most cost-effective manner. Strategies to improve outflow-tract imaging and to refer with the most efficiency may be the best way to improve detection at a population level.
